1968 Map of Eightmile

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Eightmile serves as a central point in this part of Morrow County, where a network of canyons defines the upland topography. The landscape is marked by deep drainage patterns including Lundell Canyon, Robinson Canyon, and Keck Canyon, which feed into Eightmile Creek and Rhea Creek. Human settlement is sparse and tied to the land's contours, evidenced by the presence of Storage Bins and a Landing Strip serving the agricultural needs of the high plateau. Local history is anchored by the Junkins Cemetery and the Liberty School, while the small community of Valby sits near the head of several draws. Water remains a critical resource in this arid environment, highlighted by named points like Dripping Springs and various unnamed springs scattered through the draws.
