About this map

Pleasant Prairie Oil Field dominates the landscape of this Southwestern Kansas quadrangle, where the expansive grid of the High Plains is marked by dozens of individual gas and oil wells. The map captures a moment of transition from purely agricultural use to industrial energy production, as evidenced by the dense cluster of Gas Wells that pepper the townships of Dudley and Sherman. Despite this industrial overlay, the traditional social fabric of the area remains anchored by local institutions like the Pleasant Prairie Ch and the Pleasant Prairie Sch, located at a central crossroads.
