1979 Map of Schell Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

Beaver Creek carves a winding path through this corner of the Missouri Plateau, marking a landscape defined by glacial topography and prairie drainage. The map highlights the localized elevations of the Schell Buttes, which serve as a prominent natural landmark in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. Human influence on the water table is evident through the construction of the Park Wilkey Dam, while the rural social fabric of the late 1970s is anchored by St Anthonys Cem and the surrounding township of Starkey. Crossing the border from Logan County into McIntosh County, the survey reveals a scattered network of resource extraction sites like the Gravel Pit and numerous wells, reflecting the region's reliance on groundwater and local materials for infrastructure.
