About this map

Agricultural lands and prairie drainage patterns dominate this region along the border of Harvey and Sedgwick counties. The southern outskirts of Newton anchor the northern edge of the sheet, while the northern extent of Kechi appears in the south. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of several prominent creeks, including Jester Creek and its eastern fork, which meander through a grid of established county roads like County Road 578 and South Spencer Road.

Local infrastructure is represented by the Lil Bird Airport near the southern boundary, serving the aviation needs of the rural community. Numerous water features such as Gast Lake and Wildcat Creek illustrate the hydraulic network that supports the area's farming economy. The road network, including historic alignments like Chisholm Lane, follows the township and range survey lines, creating the characteristic square-mile blocks of the Kansas plains.
