1971 Map of Chappell NW

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The high plains of the Nebraska Panhandle are captured here in the early 1970s, specifically where the border of Garden and Deuel counties meets. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, most notably the winding course of Walrath Draw and the upper reaches of Ash Hollow. These features reflect the semi-arid geography of the region, where seasonal water flow has carved distinct depressions into the plateau. Human activity is sparse but specialized, marked by the long-distance infrastructure of a Pipeline cutting diagonally across the terrain and a localized Gravel Pit near the southern boundary. The topography shows the subtle, undulating character of the land just north of the Lodgepole Creek valley, providing a clear record of land use and natural drainage before modern agricultural or infrastructure changes.
