1970 Map of Kellner

About this map

Kellner sits at the intersection of agricultural expansion and infrastructure development on this 1970 survey. The map reveals a landscape heavily managed for drainage and water control, defined by an intricate network of numbered irrigation channels such as Ditch No 4 and Ditch No 5 that crisscross the terrain of Grant. This engineering supports the fields between Buena Vista Creek and Fourmile Creek, showing a transition from the natural wetlands to productive acreage during the late twentieth century.
