1978 Map of Long Draw South

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

The high plains of Northwest Kansas are defined here by the intricate drainage of the South Fork Sappa Creek and the Middle Fk Sappa Cr. This 1970s landscape across the border of Rawlins and Thomas counties shows the sparse settlement patterns typical of the region, anchored by the small community of Clinton. The land is divided into large agricultural blocks including Clinton, Jefferson, Wendell, and Rovohl. A glimpse into the area's local history is found in the scattered rural burial grounds like Lone Star Cem, St Patrick Cem, and Cumberland Cem. The terrain is marked by the eponymous Long Draw, which carves through the northern half of the survey, and occasional industrial features such as Sandpit and several wells that indicate the local reliance on groundwater and earth resources.
