1970 Map of Freedom NE

About this map

Yellowstone and O'Bryan terrain dominates this landscape along the state line during the early 1970s. The area is defined by a series of drainage networks, most notably Yellowstone Creek and Anderson Creek, which carve through the plains. The map illustrates a transitional period of rural land use where traditional agricultural features, such as multiple springs, exist alongside emerging industrial activity. Modern infrastructure of the era is evident in the presence of several Gas Wells, Gravel Pits, and a Drill Hole. Aviation and communication landmarks also mark the region, including a Landing Strip, a Landing Field near the northern boundary, and a Radio Tower to the west. This survey provides a unique look at the rural intersection of Woods County, Oklahoma, and Comanche County, Kansas.
