2018 Map of Wild Horse Creek

About this map

Palco serves as the primary northern anchor for this rural Kansas landscape, where the High Plains terrain is etched by a series of drainage systems that descend toward the southern border. The Saline River cuts across the extreme southwest corner, while the namesake Wild Horse Cr and its tributaries, including Tomcat Cr and Spring Cr, create a branching network of draws and seasonal watercourses. The gridded road system, featuring routes like N Hampton-Fairview Township Rd and Ee Rd, reflects the agricultural heritage and township organization of the region. Family researchers may find interest in the Pleasantview Cem located in the northeast, a quiet landmark amidst the expansive fields. The map reveals the meeting point of four counties—Rooks, Graham, Ellis, and Trego—marking a significant jurisdictional intersection in the central part of the state.
