1971 Map of Bluff City West

About this map

Bluff City sits at the edge of this prairie landscape in Harper County, where the agricultural plains meet a network of meandering waterways. The map illustrates a rural economy transitioning into the 1970s, evidenced by the scattered Oil Wells and the Wilcox Landing Field located just south of the winding Bluff Creek. This region is defined by its drainage system, including Silver Creek, Wildcat Creek, and Bush Creek, which carve through the terrain and create complex contours across the townships of Stohrville and Spring.
