2012 Map of Twin Butte

About this map

Twin Butte rises as a prominent landmark in the expansive high plains landscape of western Kansas, where the terrain is etched by seasonal drainage patterns and a strictly organized grid of rural corridors. The map documents a sparsely settled region defined by its connectivity, showing major local thoroughfares like Kiowa and Jayhawk which facilitate movement through this agricultural heartland. Unlike many areas with clustered townships, this portion of Wallace County is characterized by large-scale land management, where the presence of routes such as Co Rd-120 and Co Rd-139 underscores the systematic surveying of the American West. The topographic detail reveals the subtle elevation changes that define the drainage basins surrounding the eponymous butte, providing a precise record of the physical geography as it existed in 2012.
