1976 Map of Modoc SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The arid high plains of western Kansas are defined by ephemeral drainage patterns and isolated markers of community life in this mid-1970s survey. White Woman Creek meanders across the northern section of the map, mirrored by the seasonal course of Sand Creek further south. These waterways, alongside Crozier Draw, shape a landscape otherwise divided by the precise geometry of the township and range system. Near the southern boundary, where Wichita County meets Kearny County, local heritage is anchored by the Lydia Ch and a nearby Cem. The map also indicates early industrial activity with a Gravel Pit located near the northern breaks of the terrain. The presence of these landmarks among the extensive Leoti and East Hibbard divisions illustrates the persistent footprint of rural settlement in a region dominated by vast open spaces.
