1969 Map of Schramm

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Burlington Northern rails cut a direct path across the northern reaches of this high-plains landscape, serving the small settlement of Schramm. The map records a transition in the late 1960s agricultural economy, centered around irrigation and storage, with numerous wells and specialized Storage Bins scattered across the township lines. The terrain is defined by the subtle rise of Mount Yuma in the southern sections, just north of the Base Line. This survey, compiled from 1968 aerial photography, details the meticulous system of fence lines and section boundaries that organized the Yuma County prairie during a period of intensifying land use. It provides a technical record of the infrastructure supporting the region's ranching and farming heritage, from the highway designated as 34 to the survey markers such as BM 4025.
