1952 Map of Burwell SE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The North Loup River valley dominates this landscape, providing the lifeblood for Garfield County’s agricultural economy. This 1952 topographic survey reveals a sophisticated irrigation network centered on the Burwell-Sumter Canal, which follows the river's northern bench. This water management allowed for intensive land use in an area otherwise defined by the high, dry ridges of Windy Hill and the drainage of Jones Canyon.
