2010 Map of Wray

About this map

The city of Wray serves as the focal point of this Eastern Plains landscape, situated where the North Fork Republican River cuts through the high plateau. The town is marked by a clear transition from the residential street grid, including Blake St and W North Railway St, to the surrounding agricultural sections. A complex system of water management is evident just outside the city limits, featuring several numbered structures such as Wray Watershed District Number 1 Dam and Wray Watershed District Number 6 Dam. These dams, alongside the Laird Canal and Haigler Canal, illustrate the critical importance of irrigation and flood control in this river valley. To the east of the town center, Olive Lake and Grandview Cemetery provide prominent local landmarks, while the Wray Municipal Airport sits on the higher ground to the northwest. The surrounding terrain is defined by a series of north-south drainage creeks including Holy Joe Creek, Hayes Creek, and Bloom Creek.
