1964 Map of Latham SE

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The Shinn Northeast Oil Field and scattered oil wells anchor the industrial character of this landscape in Butler and Elk counties during the early 1960s. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainage systems, most notably Hickory Creek and its North Branch and South Branch forks, which dominate the northern half of the quadrangle. As the land transitions toward the southeast, the headwaters of the Elk River emerge, while Rock Creek and Grouse Creek carve through the central and southern portions. This survey captures a moment of active resource extraction in the Kansas uplands, showing the technical infrastructure of the oil industry laid over a complex watershed system.
