1951 Map of Atwood
USGS Topo · Published 1953About this map
The South Platte River corridor defines the landscape of Logan County in the early 1950s, serving as the central axis for both agriculture and transportation. The small settlement of Atwood is positioned at the intersection of critical infrastructure, where the Union Pacific and Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroads parallel the river's path. This era of development is marked by an extensive irrigation network, including the North Pawnee Ditch, Springdale Ditch, and Schneider Ditch, which redirect water from the river and Pawnee Creek to support the surrounding plains.
