2009 Map of Ruleton NW

About this map

Middle Beaver Creek winds through the southeastern reaches of this Sherman County landscape, providing a primary drainage point in an otherwise uniform agricultural grid. This portion of the Kansas High Plains is defined by its meticulous section-line road system, where thoroughfares such as N Ruleton Ave and Co Rd 72 intersect to support the local farming economy. Small, scattered water impoundments are visible across the prairie, reflecting the modern management of surface water in a semi-arid region. The absence of concentrated settlements within this quadrangle emphasizes the rural character of the area, where isolated structures and farmsteads are linked by a network of county roads including Co Rd 8 and Co Rd 70.
