2022 Map of Wagon Bed Spring SE

About this map

The high plains of Stevens County are defined here by a geometric grid of rural routes, a classic signature of the Public Land Survey System in the western United States. These thoroughfares, including Rd Cc, Road W, and Rd Aa, slice across the landscape to provide access to isolated agricultural sections. The map reveals the township structure of the region, specifically marking t31s r37w, t31s r36w, t32s r37w, and t32s r36w. While the terrain is relatively uniform, subtle depressions and wetlands are scattered throughout, suggesting seasonal catchments for the area's scarce water. This 2022 data reflects the modern persistence of the original homestead-era division of land, where gravel and dirt roads like Rd 12 and Rd 17 remain the primary lifelines for the scattered farmsteads and ranches of the Kansas panhandle.
