About this map

Buffalo Creek and Elm Creek snake across this Dawson County landscape, illustrating a complex irrigation and water management system in the early 1960s. The presence of the Dawson County Canal, complete with a Flume and Siphon, indicates the intensive agricultural engineering required to support the local plains. Small rural hubs are anchored by local landmarks such as Fairhaven Ch and School No 21, while the Community Center and the small settlement at Josselyn mark the social centers of the day. Communication and infrastructure are further represented by the Radio Towers (KRVN) and a Gaging Station along the creek. This survey provides a precise look at the township divisions of Grant, Logan, Overton, and Wood River, offering a clear view of how field lines and property divisions were organized around the natural and man-made waterways.
