1973 Map of Crystal Springs

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the southern plains of Harper County, anchoring the small community of Crystal Springs (Eula Sta). This 1970s landscape is defined by the energy sector, featuring a sprawling Gas Field and a network of pipelines connected to a prominent Compressor Station in the north. The area's hydrology is dominated by the seasonal paths of Bluff Creek and its many tributaries, including the West Branch Bluff Creek, Middle Branch Bluff Creek, and East Branch Bluff Creek. Local infrastructure supporting the nearby population is visible through the Attica City Wells and the Crystal Springs Cem. Scattered industrial sites like a Sandpit and a Radio Tower punctuate the agricultural sections, while the township boundary of T W P 1 marks the jurisdictional layout of the terrain.
