About this map

The Missouri Pacific railroad cuts a diagonal path through this portion of Harper County, serving as the primary infrastructure artery for the rural landscape. In the early 1970s, the region was defined by a balance of agriculture and energy extraction, evidenced by the clustered wells of the Stohrville Oil Field, the Freeport Oil Field, and the Freeport South Oil and Gas Field. Local aviation is represented by private facilities like Kaypod Landing Field and the Salser Landing Strip, which dot the open country. The terrain is marked by distinctive elevations such as Pilot Knob and Odell, while the drainage system of Silver Creek and Baehr Creek flows southward toward the Berlin township line. This survey captures the specialized infrastructure of the Kansas oil patch during a period of active production.
