1973 Map of Akron SW

About this map

The rolling plains of Washington County appear here in the early 1970s, defined by the seasonal drainage patterns of Surveyor Creek and Brunker Creek. This semi-arid landscape is largely partitioned by the Base Line, showing a pattern of rural land use where isolated infrastructure supports the local population. A Community Center and a nearby Radio Facility serve as focal points for the surrounding agricultural community, while the presence of a Gas Well, several other wells, and Gravel Pits indicate the importance of resource extraction to the local economy. The area is marked by topographic markers like the Renkel name, providing a precise look at the terrain just south of Akron before modern developments altered the rural infrastructure.
