USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

North Fork Smoky Hill River meanders across this High Plains landscape, marking a terrain defined by seasonal drainage and industrial extraction. The 1979 survey captures the borderlands of Sherman and Wallace counties, where the high tablelands are dissected by Sappa Creek and Sandy Creek. Local resource extraction is evident through scattered Gravel Pits and a Sandpit, while agricultural infrastructure is represented by numerous wells and a solitary Substation. In the southeastern corner, Turtle Creek Lake and Turtle Creek provide a localized focus for water management. The survey also notes technical landmarks such as a Drill Hole, illustrating the subsurface exploration occurring alongside traditional ranching and farming in this western Kansas corridor.
