About this map

Rattlesnake Creek meanders across this rural landscape at the edge of the High Plains, carving a distinct path through the townships of Martin, Pleasant Valley, Bucklin, and Westland. The 1969 field-checked data reveals an area defined by agricultural development and energy infrastructure, where numerous gas wells and a dense network of pipelines intersect the surveyed section lines. The presence of the Chicago Rock Island and Pacific railroad provides a clear industrial backbone to the region, cutting diagonally across the terrain north of the Ford and Kiowa county line. This survey captures a moment when mid-century petroleum extraction was firmly established alongside traditional cattle and grain farming, marked by the scattering of isolated wells and utility corridors across the wide Kansas horizon.
