About this map

Ellsworth sits at the southwestern edge of this Central Kansas landscape, serving as a gateway to the intricate drainage basins of the Smoky Hill River valley. The terrain is defined by a dendritic network of seasonal and perennial streams, including Oak Cr and its eastern and western branches, which carve through the undulating prairie. To the north, the headwaters of W Elkhorn Cr and E Elkhorn Cr flow toward the Lincoln County and Ellsworth County line, illustrating the natural water-driven boundaries of the region.

Modern infrastructure is represented by the Ellsworth Municipal Airport and a grid-based road system, with thoroughfares like 15th Rd and Ave B providing access across the township sections. This 2015 survey captures the intersection of traditional agricultural land divisions and contemporary transportation corridors, such as the interstate route cutting across the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The map serves as a detailed record of the rural landscape where Spring Cr and Clear Cr navigate the subtle elevation changes of the Great Plains.
