2012 Map of Pawnee Rock

About this map

Arkansas River flows through the southeastern portion of this Barton County landscape, defining the local topography alongside its tributary, Ash Cr. The settlement of Pawnee Rock serves as a primary focal point in the southwest, while Dundee marks the rail and highway corridor to the northeast. This area of central Kansas is characterized by a precise grid of rural roads and a deep-rooted community history evidenced by numerous burial grounds scattered across the plains, including Rockville Cem, Bergtal Cem, Pawnee Rock Cem, and Dundee Valley Cem. The map illustrates the contemporary infrastructure supporting these towns, such as the Pawnee Rock Water Treatment Facility, set against a landscape traditionally shaped by the river valley and the agricultural network of the High Plains.
