1968 Map of Sharon Springs 3 NE

About this map

South Fork and the upper reaches of the Ladder Creek system define the High Plains landscape of this western Kansas territory during the late 1960s. The survey illustrates the stark, grid-aligned agricultural organization of the land, cutting across township lines in Wallace and Greeley Counties. While the terrain appears open, the map is punctuated by numerous Well locations, signaling the critical importance of groundwater for the various land divisions of Weskan, Sharon Springs, Colony, and Tribune.
