USGS Topo · Published 1986About this map
The Missouri River and Platte River converge in this mid-century topographic study, defining the low-lying bottomlands and high bluffs of the Missouri-Kansas border. The landscape is marked by the meandering path of the Platte, which features several crossings such as Dether Bridge and Humphrey Bridge before it meets the larger Missouri. Along the western edge, the Burlington Northern railroad tracks parallel the river, serving the riverside communities of Farley, Beverly, and East Leavenworth.
