1970 Map of Tribune SE

About this map

Richland and Harrison townships define the southern reaches of this high plains landscape, where the flat terrain is cut by the winding course of Mattox Draw. This 1970 field-checked survey reveals an area largely shaped by agriculture and the emerging energy sector, specifically noted by several Gas Well sites near the southern boundary. In the northwestern corner, Tuttle Landing Field represents the local aviation infrastructure of the era. The map clearly delineates the administrative transition between Greeley and Hamilton counties, providing a clear record of the rural land divisions and township boundaries like Colony that organized this portion of Western Kansas during the late twentieth century.
