1974 Map of Amy SW

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Pleasant Valley and Garfield townships characterize this section of the High Plains, where the terrain is defined by low-relief drainage patterns and seasonal water features. During the early 1970s, the landscape was primarily open country punctuated by agricultural infrastructure and localized industrial activity. The presence of Caliche Pits in the northeast quadrant indicates the extraction of calcium carbonate deposits, a common material used in local road construction across this arid region. The hydrology of the area is notably transient, featuring Dry Lake and numerous wells that highlight the importance of groundwater management in western Kansas. The boundary intersections of Scott, Lane, and Finney counties show how these administrative lines divide the vast, undulating prairie into a structured grid of sections and townships.
