1973 Map of Hanover NE

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Black Squirrel Creek shapes this high-plains landscape in eastern El Paso County, cutting a distinctive path through the terrain as it was surveyed in the early 1970s. The area is defined by large-scale ranching operations, centered on named headquarters such as the Turkey Track Ranch and Love Ranch. The map reveals a land structured by section lines and private access roads, where water is the most critical resource, evidenced by numerous isolated wells and the curiously named Youngs Puddle. Topographical landmarks like Crows Roost provide vertical relief in an otherwise expansive drainage basin. This document captures the rural character of the region before significant modern development, showing a network of ranching infrastructure and early geological exploration sites like the Drill Hole north of the main creek bed.
