1975 Map of Kintyre

About this map

Kintyre serves as the central hub of this prairie landscape, situated where the Soo Line railroad crosses the plains of Emmons and Logan Counties. The topography is defined by the natural depressions and basins of the glaciated Missouri Plateau, including water bodies like Stink Lake, Goose Lake, and Sealy. Large portions of the northern terrain are dedicated to conservation through the National Waterfowl Production Area, reflecting the region's importance to the Central Flyway. This mid-1970s survey captures the rural character of the area, showing a network of section roads and scattered township names like Campbell, Kroeber, and Tell. Local industry is represented by numerous small Gravel Pits located near the townsite and rail line, providing material for the essential road networks connecting these prairie townships.
