1972 Map of Kilmer Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Kilmer Valley dominates this section of the Nebraska Sandhills, a landscape shaped by wind and intermittent water sources. In the early 1970s, this region of Lincoln County remained sparsely populated, characterized by isolated cattle operations and ranching headquarters. The map specifically identifies the Pearce Ranch and Holt Ranch, providing evidence of the settled land use patterns during this era. Numerous instances of the label Well are scattered across the terrain, highlighting the critical importance of groundwater access for livestock and human habitation in this semi-arid environment. The presence of fine red dashed lines indicates a network of fences and field lines, offering a glimpse into the division of range lands and the practical boundaries of agricultural life on the High Plains.
