About this map

Red Willow Creek winds through the heart of this Nebraska plains landscape, carving subtle drainage patterns across the terrain of Perkins County. The 1973 survey illustrates a rural environment defined by agricultural land divisions and the infrastructure of the central United States, most notably a large-scale Pipeline that cuts diagonally across the northern townships. This era of land use is further marked by the presence of scattered wells, indicating the localized development and water management necessary for life on the High Plains. The map's detailed recording of fence and field lines, interpreted from aerial photography, provides researchers with a precise record of historical property boundaries and grazing patterns during the early 1970s.
