1961 Map of Yocemento

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Big Creek winds through the heart of the Kansas plains, following a corridor shared by the Union Pacific railroad. The settlement of Yocemento serves as a focal point along this transit artery, reflecting a landscape shaped by transportation and resource extraction. Evidence of early industry is scattered across the township lines of Ellis and Buckeye, with numerous Quarries, a Gravel Pit, and a documented Oil Well indicating the area's economic reliance on the land. To the south, the terrain rises toward Pleasant Hill, while the eastern edge of the survey includes the Fort Hays Memorial Gardens (Cemetery). The transition from traditional surface routes like Highway 40 to the modern path of Interstate 70 is clearly visible, marking the mid-century evolution of local travel and regional connectivity through Hog Back.
