About this map

The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor serves as the primary industrial artery through this mid-1980s landscape, connecting towns like Moline and Elk Falls across Chautauqua and Cowley Counties. The geography is defined by a dense network of tributaries including Grouse Creek, Cedar Creek, and the Walnut River, while an ancient Indian Treaty Boundary line cuts across the southern terrain. This planimetric study reveals a rural economy dependent on both transportation and resource extraction, evidenced by numerous Quarry sites and a local Landing Strip near Cedar Vale. Conservation and public facilities are prominent at the Cowley State Fishing Lake and the State Hospital near Winfield, providing a clear look at the region’s institutional and recreational infrastructure during this era.
