1964 Map of Olsburg SW

About this map

Tuttle Creek Lake dominates this mid-1960s landscape, where the waters of the Big Blue River meet a complex network of creeks including Mill Creek, Tuttle Creek, and Carnahan Creek. The map reflects a region shaped by both water management and rural community life, evidenced by the clustered recreation areas and the persistence of local landmarks. In the northern reaches, the Garrison Recreation Area and Carnahan Creek Recreation Area offer insight into the mid-century development of the reservoir’s shoreline for public use.
