2018 Map of Twin Butte

About this map

Harrison Flats dominates the southern reach of this High Plains landscape, situated along the county line where Wallace and Logan counties meet. The topography is defined by the sharp elevations of Wallace Bluffs in the northwest and the namesake Twin Butte in the southeast, revealing a terrain of dissected breaks typical of western Kansas. Transportation across this portion of Harrison Township relies on a grid of county routes and specifically named roads such as Ironhorse Rd, Jayhawk, and Kiowa. This 2018 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the area's transition between elevated buttes and the expansive flats, mapping the township and range lines that have structured these western Kansas lands since the original public land surveys.
