About this map

Sulphur Creek and Swede Creek carve through the agricultural uplands of northern Riley County, where the landscape is defined by its rural community markers and the southern influence of the Tuttle Creek Reservoir. The late 1960s terrain shows a pattern of established farmsteads and civic foundations, including the local Townhall and the Peach Grove Ch. These social centers are supported by a network of family and community burial grounds such as Spring Valley Cem and the Fancy Creek-Randolph Cem. Private aviation is represented by the Potts Landing Strip, while the hydrological transition of the area is further documented by North Otter Creek and School Branch. This survey illustrates the steady rural character of the region just as major reservoir projects began to alter the local drainage and topography.
