1966 Map of North of Shirley Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The high plains of western Kansas are defined by complex drainage systems across the Hamilton and Kearny county line in the mid-1960s. The landscape is marked by a series of significant draws, including James Draw, Mattox Draw, and Hibbard West Draw, which weave through the townships of Richland, Kendall, and Liberty. These topographic features indicate the importance of seasonal water flow in an otherwise arid region. Evidence of mid-century aviation appears with a small Landing Strip, reflecting the necessity of air travel for remote agricultural communities. This detailed record of land use also highlights an intricate network of fence and field lines, illustrating the established boundaries of rural land ownership and farming practices at the time of the field check in 1966.
