1986 Map of Halsey SW

About this map

The Dismal River carves a distinct, winding path across the southern portion of this Thomas County landscape, creating a sharp ecological contrast with the surrounding Sandhills. Much of the northern terrain is defined by the massive Nebraska National Forest, an area characterized by its unique hand-planted woodlands and undulating topography. Rising above the complex dune patterns is Signal Hill, a prominent high point that serves as a key landmark in this sparsely populated region. This 1986 survey documents a network of rugged 4wd tracks that provide the only passage through the shifting sands, illustrating the remote and specialized ranching and conservation character of the Nebraska interior during the late twentieth century.
