2018 Map of Penalosa

About this map

The South Fork Ninnescah River meanders across the southern reaches of Kingman County, shaping a prairie landscape of intermittent creeks and agricultural grid roads. Small rural hubs like Penalosa and Calista anchor this region, reflecting the steady agrarian character of south-central Kansas. The terrain is defined by a dendritic drainage pattern where Goose Cr and Smoots Creek feed into larger systems, eventually meeting the prominent water feature of the Kingman County State Lake in the southeast. This 2018 survey documents a region defined by its sections and townships, including t27s r9w, where the network of local connectors like Maple Grove Rd and Lerado Rd facilitate movement between the scattered farmsteads and the watercourses of Painter Cr and Mead Cr.
