1962 Map of Glen Elder North

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Limestone Creek meanders through the heart of north-central Kansas, carving a verdant path through the agricultural landscape along the border of Jewell and Mitchell counties. This 1960s-era survey captures the rural character of the Athens and Glen Elder townships, where small-town infrastructure like the Athens Sch and Athens Cem served a dispersed farming community. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the rising waters of Waconda Lake, a significant geographical shift for the region that altered the traditional drainage patterns of Frog Creek and the surrounding valley.
