1973 Map of Richfield NW

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts across the northern landscape, anchoring the regional transport network through this portion of western Kansas. To the south, the topography is defined by the winding path of Sand Arroyo Creek, which weaves through township lines and provides a distinct contrast to the surrounding plains. The 1970s energy landscape is evident in the numerous Gas Well sites dotting the terrain, reflecting the industrial footprint of the era. Positioned at the boundary of Manter, Westola, and Richfield, the area includes the jurisdictional line between Stanton Co and Morton Co. This survey documents a transitional moment in the High Plains, where traditional cattle-and-rail infrastructure met the expanding needs of natural gas extraction.
