About this map

The North Fork Solomon River valley defines the character of this 1970s landscape, where the town of Logan serves as a central hub for the surrounding agricultural and industrial activities. The town's grid is situated just north of the river, supported by the Missouri Pacific railroad line. Local infrastructure from this era is well-documented, including a Radio Tower, a Sewage Disposal plant, and the community's Golf Course.

Beyond the town limits, the geography is marked by active resource extraction and water management. Large-scale energy production is evident in the Belmont Oil Field and Plainview Oil Field, while smaller operations like a Shale Pit and Gravel Pit suggest localized mining. In the southern portion of the sheet, Logan City Lake provides a recreational focus with its Boat Ramp and Picnic Area. The presence of several major tributaries, such as Beaver Creek and Wolf Creek, highlights the intricate drainage system of the Mound region.
