2012 Map of Richfield SW

About this map

Morton County high plains terrain dominates this corner of southwest Kansas, defined by a rigid grid of rural infrastructure. The landscape is structured by a network of county thoroughfares including Co Hwy V and Co Road AA, which serve the expansive agricultural operations characteristic of the region. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern geometry of land use in the High Plains, where long, straight routes like Co Rd 7 and Co Rd 9 connect isolated farmsteads and facilitate the movement of local commerce. While mostly open ground, the map detail shows the subtle drainage patterns and occasional catchments that punctuate the plains between Co Road BB and U Rd, reflecting the water-dependent nature of life in this arid section of the state.
