1952 Map of Marks Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1954

About this map

Price Ranch and a landscape dotted with numerous windmills characterize this 1950s survey of the High Plains near the Colorado border. The map documents a sparsely populated ranching region where water security was clearly paramount, as evidenced by the high density of windmill labels across the sections. The presence of the Sunrise School (Aband) indicates a shift in local educational patterns, showing where a rural community once gathered before the school was vacated. Elevated landmarks like Marks Butte and the geodetic marker at VABM 4093 Sedgwick provide topographical context for this corner of Sedgwick County. A lone Gravel Pit near the center of the sheet points to local infrastructure needs and small-scale resource extraction during the early postwar era.
