1960 Map of Hickok SE

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

The boundary between Grant Co and Haskell Co divides this landscape, where the natural prairie of western Kansas is systematically overlaid with the grid of the petroleum industry. Surveyed in the late 1950s, the terrain is characterized by numerous depressions and draws, punctuated almost everywhere by the Gas Wells that define the local economy. The townships of Sherman, Eubank, Dudley, and Sullivan meet here, showing a sparsely populated agricultural region where infrastructure is focused on resource extraction. Aside from the industrial footprint, human presence is marked by small, localized landmarks like the Canaan Cem and a prominent Radio Tower, which stood as essential navigational and community points in an otherwise open, repeating landscape.
