1952 Map of Brewster NW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The North Loup River winds through the heart of this Sandhills landscape, flanked by the broad, level terrace of Hawley Flats. This 1952 survey, updated with revisions from the 1970s, captures a ranching environment where water and access dictated the placement of early infrastructure. Key crossing points like the Pitt Bridge and specialized aviation markers like the Landing Strip near the riverbank speak to the connectivity required in this part of Blaine County. Small-scale rural life is evidenced by the presence of School No 3, which served the scattered families of the district. The terrain is otherwise defined by numerous isolated Windmill sites and a natural Spring, illustrating the critical role of groundwater in sustaining the livestock operations that dominate the prairie of the Brewster and Dunning regions.
