1949 Map of Parkerton

USGS Topo · Published 1966

About this map

The Big Muddy Oil Field dominates this late-1940s landscape, illustrating the industrial character of Converse County during the post-war energy boom. The infrastructure of petroleum extraction is evident across the sheet, from the prominent Oil Refinery near Glenrock to the network of pipelines and service roads that crisscross the terrain. The North Platte River serves as a primary geographic anchor, its banks paralleled by two major rail lines: the Chicago and Northwestern and the Chicago Burlington and Quincy.
