About this map

Hamilton County State Lake sits at the center of this 1960s landscape, providing a primary water feature amidst the high plains terrain of western Kansas. The map captures the infrastructure of the High Plains, where the Atchison Topeka and Santa Fe railroad corridor runs parallel to the Arkansas River and the Alamo Ditch. This transportation and irrigation network at the southern edge of the sheet contrasts with the open spaces of the Syracuse Field and the rural reaches of Medway and Liberty. North of the river, several drainage systems including Bradshaw Creek, Plum Creek, and Sand Creek cut through the topography. Local social and industrial landmarks are present in the form of the Syracuse Country Club and various Gravel Pits, showing the intersection of recreation and resource extraction during this era.
