1968 Map of South of Twin Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Chalk Creek carves a distinctive horizontal path across this High Plains landscape, marking the transition between the rolling uplands of Harrison and Augustine to the north and the southern reaches of Beaver. The topography in this 1968 study is defined by sharp contour changes near the creek bed, contrasting with the expansive, grid-like division of the surrounding prairie. This area serves as a significant geographic meeting point, where the boundaries of Wallace, Logan, and Wichita counties converge. Scattered throughout the townships, numerous wells indicate the vital reliance on groundwater for sustaining the agricultural and ranching operations of western Kansas during this era. The map captures a moment when traditional land use patterns remained dominant, etched into a terrain shaped by the slow erosion of the creek through the chalky soil.
