1973 Map of Grainton

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Grainton sits as the primary settlement on this High Plains landscape, situated along the Burlington Northern railroad corridor. The area is defined by a systematic grid of section lines and field boundaries, interspersed with the natural drainage of Blackwood Creek in the southeastern quadrant. This survey, conducted in the early 1970s, documents the intersection of rural agriculture and infrastructure, noting features like a local Substation and the Elsie Cem located near the western boundary. Numerous wells are marked across the terrain, illustrating the vital role of groundwater management in sustaining the region's farms and homesteads. The map provides a precise record of land use, including specific fence and field lines that were visible from aerial photography during the mapping process.
