1970 Map of Jeffrey Reservoir SE

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Peckham and the surrounding drainages of Lincoln County are captured in this 1970 survey, illustrating the complex hydrology of the Nebraska plains. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, most notably Plum Creek and its tributary, North Plum Creek, which wind through the terrain alongside East Deer Creek. These labels suggest a landscape shaped by intermittent water flow and cattle ranching during the late twentieth century. Numerous unnamed wells dot the land, particularly around the central plains of Peckham, indicating the critical importance of groundwater for agricultural survival in this semi-arid region. Several prominent geological features, including Gilman Canyon and Gulch Canyon, show how erosion has carved deep incisions into the plateau, creating a distinct pattern of land use focused on the valley floors.
