About this map

Arikaree River and its tributary systems define this corner of Lincoln County during the late 1970s. The landscape is characterized by intermittent watercourses like Currie Creek, Lickdab Creek, and Dugout Creek, which carve a network of drainages across the high plains. Human activity in this rural expanse is marked by infrastructure and resource extraction rather than dense settlement, evidenced by a prominent north-south Pipeline and a localized Landing Strip. Small-scale industrial sites, including several Gravel Pits, are situated near the riverbanks, suggesting the importance of local material for road building or regional construction during this era. Scattered wells across the quadrangle highlight the ongoing necessity of groundwater management for the agricultural and ranching operations that utilize these wide-open grasslands.
