1973 Map of Kimball 1 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Rocky Hollow defines the drainage and topography of this high plains landscape in the Nebraska panhandle. The orthophotomosaic, created from aerial imagery captured in the early 1970s, reveals a stark contrast between the natural, winding path of the hollow and the rigid, geometric patterns of industrial-scale dryland farming. These long, narrow agricultural strips dominate the terrain, illustrating the sophisticated moisture-conservation techniques used in the region's wheat production. The lack of traditional town centers or named settlements emphasizes the rural, land-centric economy of Banner County, where the relationship between the soil and the seasonal water flow of the Rocky Hollow drainage dictates the layout of the land.
