1966 Map of Ruleton NW

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Middle Fork Beaver Creek winds across this section of the High Plains, carving a distinct drainage pattern through the townships of Grant and Lincoln. The landscape in the mid-1960s was defined by sparse industrial markers and the rigid geometries of section lines, including the prominent State Line marking the western boundary of the county. In a region where water sources and topographic shifts are critical to land use, the map reveals the relationship between the natural creek beds and early local industry, notably at several Sandpit sites located along the valley floor. The scattered presence of numerous wells indicates the importance of groundwater for agriculture and settlement in this portion of Sherman County.
