1965 Map of Okobojo NE

About this map

Okobojo Creek cuts a deep, winding valley through the plains of Sully County, creating a stark contrast between the dissected drainage breaks and the surrounding high plateau. This mid-1960s survey, conducted for the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, reveals a landscape defined by expansive township and range sections. The concentration of community landmarks at the valley's edge suggests a historical focal point for rural life, specifically around the Okobojo Cem and the nearby Okobojo Sch. Several Gravel Pit locations and larger Gravel Pits are marked along the creek banks, indicating the local extraction necessary for maintaining the unimproved and light-duty road network that connects these scattered upland farms and homesteads.
