About this map

The county line between Oliver Co and Morton Co divides this landscape, reflecting the agricultural and industrial character of the region in the early 1970s. The survey illustrates the intersection of rural community life and resource extraction, with a Lignite Pit in the north and various Gravel Pits scattered to the south. These features, along with an extensive Pipeline, highlight the era's reliance on the local geology for energy and infrastructure material. Religious and memorial sites serve as the primary landmarks for the local population, including St Vincent Ch near the southern edge and Rosebud Cem to the northwest. The terrain is detailed with fine red dashed lines that indicate the specific fence and field lines visible from the air at the time of the survey, offering a precise look at mid-century land division and farming boundaries.
