About this map

McPherson County's open prairie is mapped here during the late 1970s, defined by its agricultural layout and small-scale resource extraction. The landscape is marked by numerous Gravel Pits and a prominent Railroad Grade running across the northern sections, indicating the historical path of transport through this rural region. Recreational and communication infrastructure is concentrated near the roads, including the Leola Country Club, a Roadside Park, and a Radio Tower. The survey is particularly detailed in its depiction of property boundaries, utilizing fine dashed lines to show fence and field lines as they existed in 1973. This level of detail provides an excellent record of land use and rural development before modern shifts in farming practices changed the local topography.
