2016 Map of Simmons Creek

About this map

Clark County State Lake anchors the southern portion of this landscape, where the waters of Bluff Cr are impounded near the border of Ford and Clark counties. The terrain is defined by a series of drainage systems, including Simmons Creek, Hargis Cr, and Rattlesnake Cr, which carve through the high plains. This 2016 survey illustrates the persistent agricultural and ranching character of the region, where a geometric grid of rural routes like Zane Rd and CR 15 provides the primary infrastructure for local commerce. In the western reaches, the Esplund Farm Airport represents the integration of aviation into modern farm management, reflecting how large-scale landholdings are navigated in this part of Kansas.
