1971 Map of Sturgis

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The small community of Sturgis serves as a focal point in this 1971 survey of the Oklahoma Panhandle, situated along the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad line. The landscape is defined by its industrial and agricultural utility, with numerous gas and oil wells dotting the terrain surrounding Goff and the seasonal flow of Goff Creek. The map captures the tri-state intersection of Oklahoma, Colorado, and Kansas, revealing the stark survey lines and section corners that dictate the regional geography. Natural features like Sandy Hook and Carthage contrast with the engineered presence of a sandpit and the Roadside Park along the highway. This area reflects the mid-century energy boom in the Panhandle, where the railroad network facilitated the extraction and transport of resources across the high plains.
