About this map

Pleasant Valley and the Garfield terrain define this High Plains landscape in western Kansas during the mid-1970s. This area of Finney County reflects a specialized agricultural and industrial pattern, where traditional land divisions meet modern energy extraction. The map captures a high density of Gas Wells and an exploratory Drill Hole, particularly concentrated in the southwestern sections.

Evidence of the local geological economy is further seen in the Gravel Pit located near the eastern edge, adjacent to naturally occurring Springs. The terrain is characterized by subtle elevation changes and depressions typical of the region, punctuated by a network of unimproved roads and sectional boundaries including the line between Township 21 South and Township 22 South. This survey provides a precise record of rural land use before subsequent changes in irrigation and energy infrastructure.
