1970 Map of Dickens NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Sandhills topography and scattered agricultural features define this rural portion of Lincoln County as it appeared in the early 1970s. The landscape is characterized by a high density of closed-contour depressions and small intermittent ponds, typical of the Nebraska Platte River basin's uplands. Human activity is sparse across the townships of Dickens and Sellers, marked primarily by a lattice of field lines and isolated homesteads like Graves. A prominent industrial feature, a long Pipeline, cuts through the southern sections of the map, providing a sharp contrast to the irregular natural contours. This survey serves as a detailed record of the region’s land use patterns before modern pivots changed the face of High Plains agriculture.
