1962 Map of Bertrand NW

About this map

The braided channels of the Platte River dominate this Central Nebraska landscape, where the waterway splits into intricate paths around Danielson Island and Jeffreys Island. This mid-century survey illustrates the region's complex water management system, critical for agriculture in Dawson, Gosper, and Phelps counties. Engineered waterways like the Berquist Lateral and the Phelps County Canal divert water across the plains, while natural drainages like Plum Creek and Spring Creek wind through the township sections. Educational and recreational landmarks are scattered throughout the rural landscape, including the Spring Creek Sch and School No 31, along with the Westminster Woods Camp situated near the riverbanks. The map also records local industry through features such as a Gravel Pit, providing a detailed look at the rural infrastructure of the early 1960s.
