1969 Map of Nickel Mine Spring

About this map

Nickel Mine Spring marks a vital water source in this high plains landscape of Logan County, where the topography is defined by the sharp drainage of Twin Butte Creek. The map reveals a transition from the elevated plateaus of the Western and Russell Springs townships toward the more dissected breaks of the Augustine and Paxton districts. While the area is largely characterized by its natural contours, small-scale industrial activity is evident in the presence of a Gravel Pit and a Quarry, suggesting the local extraction of materials for road construction or ranching needs during the late 1960s. The dense concentration of contour lines illustrates the significant relief between the upland flats and the creek beds that cut through this section of the Kansas prairie.
