2017 Map of Wauneta West

About this map

Frenchman Cr meanders across the center of this Chase County landscape, providing the primary drainage for the agricultural tablelands of Southwest Nebraska. The settlement of Wauneta occupies the eastern edge of the quadrangle, where the street grid transitions from W Wichita St into a network of section-line rural roads including Old Hwy 6 and 344 Ave. The land is defined by the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries for t6n r37w, t6n r36w, t5n r37w, and t5n r36w marking the organized agricultural heritage of the region. Local history is anchored at the Riverside Cem, situated just west of the town center above the creek valley. The map reveals the precise intersection of topography and human infrastructure, showing how irrigation and elevation contours influence the placement of thoroughfares like Rd 730 and 342 Ave.
