1939 Map of Lake Mc Bride

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

El Quartelejo Pueblo Ruins Monument provides a focal point for this 1939 survey, highlighting the site of the northernmost pueblo in the United States. Situated within the canyon-cut landscape of western Kansas, the area is defined by the winding course of Ladder Creek, which feeds into Lake McBride. The surrounding terrain features dramatic breaks such as Suicide Bluffs and numerous drainage systems including Gatlin Canyon and Battenburg Canyon. Local education and community life are marked by the Glendale Sch, Prairie View Sch, and State Park Sch. This map captures the region just before the mid-century, showing early water management features like the Sheath Dam and the development of Lake McBride State Park, reflecting an era of transition as the High Plains landscape was adapted for both conservation and public recreation.
