1969 Map of Gordon SE

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

The Chicago and North Western railroad cuts across the Sandhills landscape of this 1969 survey, tracing a path through the transition between Sheridan and Cherry counties. This interior ranching region is defined by the winding courses of Antelope Creek and Hay Creek, which support the scattered agricultural operations visible in the fine red dashed fence and field lines. The map documents the localized social infrastructure of rural Nebraska, identifying several small educational hubs including Sunny Knoll Sch, East Pride Sch, and Northwest Cherry Sch. In the northern portion of the sheet, the label Wounded Knee marks a prominent water feature near the regional divide. The presence of a Gravel Pit along the rail line suggests the localized extraction industry supporting the transport network and road development in this sparsely populated cattle country.
