1973 Map of Kimball 2 NW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The High Plains of the Nebraska Panhandle are captured here in an orthophotomosaic composed of aerial imagery taken in May 1973. This particular landscape is defined by its agricultural geometry, showing a sophisticated system of strip-cropping and field management common to the western edges of the state. Long Canyon cuts through the northwest corner of the map, providing a distinct break in the otherwise ordered agricultural pattern. Because this is an orthophotoquad, the map emphasizes the actual land use and vegetation density of the era rather than traditional topographic symbols, offering a raw view of the drainage patterns and soil conservation practices employed by local farmers in the early 1970s.
