Little Blue River valley industry and agriculture define this 1970 landscape, where the convergence of the Burlington Northern and Union Pacific railroads drove local development. The map details the village of Endicott and the town of Steele City, revealing the industrial footprint of the era through features like the Claypit, Kilns, and multiple Gravel Pits. These resource extraction sites, clustered near the river and rail lines, highlight the importance of the valley's geology to the local economy. Beyond the main settlements, the terrain is deeply dissected by numerous tributaries including Rock Creek, Spring Creek, and Turkey Creek. For genealogists, the Steele City Cem and the small settlement of Rose provide specific points of interest. The southern border of the map marks the Nebraska Kansas state line, cutting across the rural townships of Endicott and Newton.
