About this map

Brosius Ranch and Bailey Ranch stand as primary landmarks in this high plains landscape of Lincoln County, Nebraska. Mapped in the early 1970s, the terrain is defined by a sparse distribution of agricultural infrastructure, characterized by isolated cattle ranches and scattered wells that support livestock in an arid environment. The map provides a look at the rural land management of the era, with fine red dashed lines indicating fence and field boundaries that delineate the vast grazing lands of the Sandhills region. This specific quadrangle captures the essential isolation of ranching life, where large tracts of land are organized by the township and range system, specifically marking the transition between T. 16 N. and T. 15 N. in a territory where water sources are the most critical topographic features.
