1967 Map of Alden NW

About this map

The Quivira National Wildlife Refuge dominates the western landscape of this mid-century survey, revealing a complex network of wetlands and water management where Stafford, Rice, and Reno counties meet. The convergence of Arkansas River and Salt Creek in the northeast contrasts with the managed hydrologic features of the refuge, such as Lake Darrynane and Park Smith Lake. This area of Kansas was clearly transitioning through industrial development, evidenced by the numerous Oil Wells and a significant Pipeline corridor cutting through the township sections. Local water dynamics are meticulously captured through features like the Gaging Station on Salt Creek and the winding course of Rattlesnake Creek, illustrating the intersection of natural prairie drainage and mid-century land use.
