1979 Map of Wild Horse Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

North Fork Smoky Hill River carves a winding path through the high plains at the boundary of Sherman and Wallace counties, defining the hydrologic character of this western Kansas landscape in the late 1970s. The map reveals a network of intermittent watercourses and deep-cut drainage features, most notably Wild Horse Draw and Kolacny Canyon, which demonstrate the erosional patterns of the Smoky Hill region. The sparse distribution of man-made structures is punctuated only by several industrial Gravel Pit locations and a series of scattered Wells, reflecting a rural economy tied closely to geological resources and agriculture. The convergence of Gardner Draw and other seasonal tributaries like Lake Cr into the larger river system highlights the critical role of these drainages in an otherwise arid environment.
