1964 Map of Olsburg NW

About this map

Tuttle Creek Reservoir dominates the landscape of north-central Kansas in the mid-1960s, its waters filling the deep valleys formed by the Big Blue River. This topographic record illustrates a significant era of hydrological transformation, showing the reservoir at its normal pool elevation and the resulting shoreline that redefined the borders between Riley and Pottawatomie counties. The newly formed lake created vast recreational opportunities, evidenced by the Fancy Creek State Park, Swede Creek Recreation Area, and Baldwin Creek Recreation Area.
