1954 Map of Gables NW

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Big Cedar Creek and Little Cedar Creek wind through this portion of the Nebraska Sandhills, defining a landscape dominated by complex dune formations and small, intermittent wetland pockets. This 1954 survey, updated with photogrammetric data through the 1980s, reveals a territory organized by the township and range system, specifically marking the boundary between T. 23 N. and T. 22 N. The map provides a detailed look at the drainage patterns and topographic relief of Garfield County, where the sparse network of section lines and windmills indicates a land primarily utilized for large-scale ranching and grazing. The intricate contour work illustrates the shifting nature of the local terrain, capturing the precise elevation and orientation of the sandhills before further modernization or land-use changes.
