1980 Map of Mc Cracken NE

USGS Topo · Published 1981

About this map

Smoky Hill Oil Field dominates the central landscape of this western Kansas survey, highlighting the region's petroleum development during the late 1970s. The map illustrates a sparse, industrial prairie environment where extraction and agriculture overlap, centered around the Hampton township area. Infrastructure is primarily dedicated to resource management, with numerous Oil Wells and several Quarry sites scattered across the drainages. Waterways like Snake Creek cut through the terrain, which is largely defined by its township and county boundaries. A solitary Landing Strip and a specialized Claypit indicate the varied industrial uses of the land. This map provides a detailed record of the intersections between Ellis, Trego, Ness, and Rush counties, capturing the transition from traditional rangeland to a modern energy-producing landscape.
