1963 Map of Sikeston South

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Sikeston and Matthews anchor this detailed look at the Missouri Bootheel, capturing a landscape defined by industrial drainage and rail transport. The terrain is characterized by the broad elevations of Sikeston Ridge, Big Prairie, and Long Prairie, which are segmented by an extensive network of man-made waterways including St Johns Ditch, North Cut Ditch, and Ash Slough Ditch. These ditches reflect the massive engineering efforts required to reclaim the region's fertile lowlands for agriculture.
