1969 Map of Arapahoe NE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Smoky Hill River winds across the High Plains of the Colorado-Kansas border, serving as the defining geographic feature of this arid landscape. This 1969 field-checked survey highlights the convergence of several major drainage systems, including Willow Creek and Big Timber Creek, which cut through the open rangeland of Morton and Weskan. The map reveals the critical reliance on groundwater in this region, marking individual points such as Well and Wells that sustained local agricultural efforts and early settlement. The straight-line boundary between Colorado and Kansas divides the map, illustrating how political lines often bisect natural features like the river valley. The survey provides a clear view of the section-line road network that began to structure the territory as township and range divisions were formally established.
