About this map

Scranton is the central hub of this northern Logan County landscape, which transitions from the flatlands around Owens Lake to the more varied elevations of Prairie View Mountain and Rich Mountain. The map reveals a dense network of family and local history markers, particularly the numerous rural cemeteries like Saint Ignatius Cemetery and Saint Meinrads Cemetery that anchor the small communities of Prairie View and Midway.

A network of local roads such as Old Military Rd and Red Barn Antique Rd connects scattered settlements like Plainview, Pleasant Hill, and Sand Ridge. The geography is defined by the drainage of Cane Creek and its forks, while the presence of the Prairie View Gas Field highlights the local resource extraction economy alongside established agricultural valleys like Saint Louis Valley and Sorghum Hollow.
