1978 Map of Beardsley

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Beardsley and Blakeman serve as the primary hubs in this western Kansas landscape, where the agricultural and transport infrastructure of Rawlins County is clearly defined. The Burlington Northern railroad corridor parallels the drainage of North Beaver Creek, a critical lifeline for the local economy. The terrain is deeply incised by multiple branches of Beaver Creek, creating a complex series of draws and ridges across the townships of Celia, Logan, Beaver, and Burntwood. Local industry is represented by several extraction sites including a Gravel Pit and a Sandpit, while the Blakeman Cem provides a fixed point of reference for genealogists tracing family roots in this rural community. The map demonstrates how the railroad and watercourses dictated the placement of these early prairie settlements.
