About this map

The Saline River winds across this Ellis County landscape, carving a wide valley through the plains north of the N Fork Big Cr. This area is characterized by a precise grid of rural thoroughfares, including Saline River Rd and Severin Rd, which define the agricultural boundaries of the township and range system. In the southeastern reaches, the Saint Severin Cem stands as a significant point of local heritage near the junction of 280th Ave. The terrain is marked by notable drainage patterns from secondary waterways like Sand Cr and the descriptively named Horse Thief Canyon Ave. This 2018 survey illustrates the enduring rural structure of the region, where legacy roads such as Homestead Rd and St John - St Andrew Rd connect disparate farmsteads across the Kansas prairie.
