1973 Map of Kimball 1 NE

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Agricultural strip cropping creates a striking geometric pattern across the High Plains landscape of Banner County in the early 1970s. This orthophotoquad reveals the intricate relationship between modern soil conservation practices and the underlying topography of the Nebraska Panhandle. The most prominent natural drainage system, Rocky Hollow, carves a winding path through the center and southern reaches of the map, revealing the erosion patterns that define this upland environment. The high-contrast imagery highlights the stark transition between cultivated fields and the native breaks and gullies that remain unsuitable for the plow, providing a clear record of land use and environmental management during this era of industrialized farming.
