1976 Map of Tennis

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The high plains of western Kansas in the mid-1970s are defined by a complex intersection of energy extraction and rail transport. The Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad cuts a diagonal path through the southeastern corner of the quadrangle, serving small points like Gano and the settlement of Tennis. This area is heavily developed as an Oil and Gas Field, with a dense grid of oil wells and gas wells peppered throughout the landscape of Terry and Pleasant Valley. These industrial features exist alongside natural water bodies such as Sondreagger Lake and Corrigan Lake, while the Neiman Landing Strip indicates the importance of aerial access for managing these sprawling operations. The map reflects a landscape transformed by the 20th-century petroleum boom, where traditional agricultural section lines now share space with a sophisticated energy infrastructure.
