1956 Map of Ellinwood NW

About this map

Cheyenne Bottoms dominates this portion of Barton County, appearing here as a complex marshland environment managed within the Cheyenne Bottoms State Waterfowl Refuge. The landscape is defined by human engineering designed to control the flow of water across this natural depression, including the Inlet Canal, the Outlet Canal, and a system of Floodgates and Levees. These features illustrate the mid-century efforts to stabilize a critical migratory habitat while protecting surrounding agricultural interests.
