1985 Map of Arabia

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Arabia stands as a quiet focal point along the Chicago and North Western rail line in the Nebraska Sandhills during the mid-1980s. This landscape is defined by the complex hydrology of Cherry County, where the Ainsworth Canal cuts across the southern terrain to manage water resources in this semi-arid region. The map documents a transition between natural watercourses like Evergreen Creek and engineered irrigation systems, reflecting the agricultural adaptations of the era. To the north, the headwaters of Fairfield and its South Fork meander through the undulating topography, while several irrigation wells labeled Irr Well indicate the reliance on groundwater for local ranching and farming operations. The rail corridor provides the primary infrastructure link through this sparsely populated territory, connecting the small settlement of Arabia to the broader regional economy.
