1966 Map of Plum Creek North

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Richland Gas Field defines the industrial character of this landscape in western Kansas, where a network of subterranean energy infrastructure was being established in the mid-1960s. The terrain is marked by the subtle drainage patterns of Plum Creek, Mattox Draw, and Sand Creek, which cut through the townships of Bradshaw, Medway, and Liberty. This period of development is evidenced by the prominent Pipeline corridors cutting diagonally across the section lines, supported by a central Pumping Station and nearby Radio Towers. Local aviation is represented by Lewis Airport, a small facility situated among the section-line roads and open plains. The map reveals a transition toward organized natural gas extraction while maintaining the traditional grid of rural land divisions characteristic of the High Plains.
