1965 Map of Lake Afton

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The South Fork Ninnescah River carves a prominent path across this rural Kansas landscape, where agricultural fields are divided by a network of farm roads and fences. In the northeastern corner, the waters of Lake Afton and Clear Lake serve as a focal point for the surrounding Afton and Morton townships. The map documents the specific social infrastructure of the mid-1960s, including the Lake Afton Boys Ranch and Camp Hyde, alongside essential local sites like Peotone Cem in the southern reaches of the quadrangle. A system of creeks, such as Mud Creek, Jocelyn Creek, and Spring Creek, feeds into the main river valley, illustrating the drainage patterns of the Sedgwick County countryside. The inclusion of a major Pipeline cutting through several sections reflects the expanding industrial utility footprint in this traditional farming region.
