2009 Map of Pence

About this map

Pence sits as a quiet focal point in western Kansas, where the organized grid of county roads meets the wandering paths of intermittent watercourses. The landscape is defined by the drainage of Chalk Creek, which cuts through the northern half of the territory, and the more dramatic relief of Timber Canyon in the southeast. This 2009 survey highlights a rural layout where agricultural life and local heritage intersect at sites like Pence Cemetery and the Scott Mennonite Cemetery. The intersection of W Rd 270 and N Beaver Rd anchors the local transportation network, while the label Coyote in the northeast suggests a specific local landmark or property within this High Plains setting. The transition from flat sections like Dakota to the broken ground of the canyons illustrates the varied topography found in this corner of Scott County.
