About this map

Crooked Cr and Fivemile Cr weave through the drainage basins of this high plains landscape, defining the topography along the Kansas-Oklahoma state line. The survey captures a sparsely populated border region where the transition between Meade County, Kansas, and Beaver County, Oklahoma, is marked by a rigid grid of section lines and gravel routes such as Z Rd and EE Rd. A lone local landmark, Butler Cem, sits near the eastern edge of the quadrangle, serving as a vital point of reference for genealogists tracing families in this remote corner of the Central Plains. The presence of Hollow E0005 in the southern portion of the sheet highlights the seasonal drainage patterns that have shaped the ranching and agricultural development of the region for generations.
