1979 Map of Grinnell NE

About this map

The Saline River cuts across this High Plains landscape, marking a central drainage point in Sheridan County. To the north, Spring Brook and its tributary Spring Brook Creek define the upper terrain, while the southern edge of the map follows the Sheridan Co Gove Co line. This survey, based on mid-1970s photography, documents a landscape shaped by both water and rail transportation. Along the southern border, the Union Pacific railroad corridor passes through the northern reaches of Grinnell and Grainfield, illustrating the importance of this transit line to the region's agricultural economy. Pockets of industry are evident through several Sandpits and a Gravel Pit, providing insight into local resource extraction along the North Fork Big Creek and the river valley during the late twentieth century.
