1952 Map of Brewster SW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Middle Loup River meanders across this mid-century Sandhills landscape, marking the central drainage of a region defined by broad valleys and scattered ranching infrastructure. The map reveals the intricate water management history of the area, featuring an Abandoned Canal that parallels the river's northern bank. To the south of the water, the remnants of early educational infrastructure are preserved in the form of School No 21 (Abandoned), a site of significant local genealogy interest. The terrain is structured by expansive flats including Brewster Valley and Edith Valley, while smaller tributaries like Rifle Creek feed into the primary river system. This survey, photoinspected in the 1970s but based on earlier 1950s data, illustrates the sparse settlement patterns and the enduring geography of the Dunning and Edith areas.
