About this map

Spring Creek meanders through the heart of this landscape, marking the topography of the Nebraska sandhills in the early 1970s. The survey covers the boundary between Perkins Co and Chase Co, capturing a rural area defined by agricultural development and resource extraction. Numerous wells are scattered throughout the sections, reflecting the importance of water management in this High Plains environment. Small-scale industrial activity is evident through the presence of several Gravel Pits, likely serving local road construction and maintenance needs during this era. The map also includes fine-grained details from the period's aerial surveys, such as field lines and fence boundaries, providing a clear view of land division and land-use patterns before modern consolidation.
