1973 Map of Bitter Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Bitter Lake and its surrounding wetlands dominate this prairie landscape in Miner County, illustrating a region dedicated to conservation and seasonal water management in the early 1970s. The presence of the Bitter Lake State Public Shooting Area, the Burke Slough State Public Shooting Area, and multiple locations designated as a National Waterfowl Production Area underscores the importance of the Central Flyway. These public lands are interspersed with agricultural features, including several Gravel Pits and the Roswell Cem near the Roswell Corporate Boundary. Local drainage is defined by the wandering paths of Pooley Creek and Rock Creek, while a lonely Townhall stands at a rural crossroads, serving as a center for the surrounding townships of Clinton and Rock Creek.
