About this map

Hackberry Creek and Spring Creek meander through this section of Ness County, where the plains are defined by intermittent watercourses and scattered landmarks of a rural prairie community. The Buda Community Hall and Buda Cem serve as focal points for local history, marking a small civic and memorial cluster in the south-central portion of the map.

Economic activity in the mid-1970s is evidenced by resource extraction sites, including a Caliche Pit and various Oil Wells concentrated near the eastern and western boundaries. The map captures a high degree of administrative convergence, showing the corners of Ness, Lane, Finney, and Hodgeman counties. The terrain names Johnson, North Roscoe, and Garfield appear as regional identifiers, while Guzzlers Gulch cuts through the northeastern reaches.
