Melvern Reservoir dominates the southern landscape of this 1971 survey, showing the rising waters of the Marais des Cygnes River valley. The map documents a transitional period for Osage County, where the industrial legacy of Strip Mines and the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor meet newer recreational and water management projects. Just south of Osage City, the Osage City Reservoir and Osage City Country Club provide a snapshot of local life during the early 1970s.
