Strip Pits State Wildlife Management Area dominates the northwestern landscape of this Cherokee County quadrangle, where former mining excavations have been repurposed for conservation. The industrial footprint is evident throughout the region, from the Strip Mine north of Hallowell to the rail infrastructure of the Missouri-Kansas-Texas and St Louis-San Francisco lines that intersect at Sherwin. These rail corridors historically served the coal-rich area, linking local pits to larger markets.
