1982 Map of Lake George

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

The Nebraska Sandhills landscape of Rock County is defined by its characteristic depressions and wetlands, centered around Lake George. This 1982 survey reveals a sparsely populated ranching region where the presence of the Helm Ranch stands as a primary landmark for local history and genealogy. The terrain is marked by numerous basins, including Cark Lake, which are characteristic of this unique physiographic province. A notable north-south transportation artery, Route 183, bisects the eastern portion of the quadrangle, providing the principal access through the undulating dune-like topography. Smaller features like the Wc landmark and various scattered wells suggest the critical role of water management in this high plains environment during the late 1970s and early 1980s.
