1973 Map of Bridgeport SW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Pumpkin Creek meanders through this portion of Morrill County, defining a landscape shaped by a complex patchwork of agricultural development as seen in the spring of 1973. This orthophotomosaic, prepared by the U.S. Geological Survey, reveals a striking visual contrast between the heavily irrigated center-pivot circles and the traditional rectangular dryland farming strips that dominate the central plains. To the north, the terrain transitions into the broken breaks of the Nebraska Panhandle, where the prominent Roundhouse Rock stands as a distinct topographic marker above the valley floor. The map provides an overhead perspective of the local drainage system, including the confluence of Middle Creek with the primary waterway, offering a detailed look at land use patterns and water management in the region during the early 1970s.
