1976 Map of Marienthal

About this map

Marienthal serves as the primary focal point of this High Plains landscape, situated along the Missouri Pacific railroad line. The settlement pattern here is closely tied to the rail corridor and the local agricultural infrastructure, including a Roadside Park and the nearby St Marys Cem. The terrain is defined by the significant incision of Rocky Draw, which carves a deep, winding path through the center of the sheet, eventually meeting the wider drainage of White Woman Creek to the south. This 1976 field-checked survey highlights a transition between the flat upland plains and the more complex drainage systems of the Leoti and Valley townships. Economic activity is represented by scattered Gravel Pits and a long-distance Pipeline that traverses the southern half of the quadrangle.
