1973 Map of Antelope Island

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The Old Indian Treaty Boundary slices through the southern portion of this landscape, marking a significant historical line across the rugged terrain of Stanley and Hughes Counties. In the early 1970s, the Missouri River corridor is dominated by the waters of Lake Sharpe, which surrounds landforms such as Antelope Island and Farm Island. The northern bank is defined by the infrastructure of the Chicago and North Western railroad, which runs parallel to the river through small stops like Alto and near Pleasant. This survey captures the region after the construction of dams altered the river's flow, creating Hipple Lake and providing for the Antelope-Creek Recreation Area. The map reveals a transition from the industrial rail line and gravel pits in the north to the deeply eroded drainages of Timber Creek and Sand Creek in the south.
