2010 Map of South of Twin Butte

About this map

Chalk Creek meanders across the high plains of western Kansas in this 2010 survey of Wallace County. The landscape is defined by the rigid geometry of the Section Land Survey system, where gravel and dirt roads like Bison Rd and Adobe Rd follow mile-square grid lines across the shortgrass prairie. This digital-era map captures a rural environment where large-scale ranching and agriculture are the primary human imprints. Aside from the established road network, which includes named routes like Dakota and Coyote, the most prominent landmark is the Arrow B Ranch Airport, reflecting the necessity of private aviation for navigating this expansive terrain. This map serves as a clear record of the modern rural infrastructure and land management patterns in a region where water sources like Chalk Creek remain the most significant natural features.
