About this map

Sawmill Creek meanders through this agricultural landscape in the early 1970s, where the high plains of western Kansas are organized into large townships. The map documents rural divisions including Marena, Sawmill, Sterling, and Jackson, reflecting the cadastral history of the region. This period shows a transition toward energy extraction and infrastructure, evidenced by the presence of a Gas Well and a Radio Tower BM 2293. The terrain is marked by the distinct boundary intersections of Hodgeman, Pawnee, and Edwards counties. Local resource use is noted by a Caliche Pit, a detail of interest to those studying historical land use and geological extraction in the area. The network of section lines and primitive roads illustrates the enduring structure of the Kansas prairie survey system.
