2012 Map of Sublette SW

About this map

The Cimarron River carves a winding path across the southwestern corner of Seward County, creating a distinct topographical break in an otherwise highly organized agricultural landscape. This 2012 survey reveals a classic High Plains section-line grid, where roads like Road 23 and Road K delineate the vast tracts of farmland typical of western Kansas. Scattered agricultural buildings and small impoundments, such as Mitchell Pond, highlight the importance of water management in this prairie environment. The southern portion of the map features the Satanta Cutoff Rd, a notable transportation link that diverges from the cardinal grid to follow the natural contours near the river valley. For researchers, this document provides a precise record of rural property access and water resources in a region defined by its large-scale farming operations and river drainage systems.
