2011 Map of Lincoln Valley SE

About this map

Advent Cemetery sits in the northern reaches of this Sheridan County landscape, a marker of local genealogy within a strictly organized grid of agricultural section lines. This 2011 survey illustrates the rural character of the region, where the road network, including 14th St NE and 13th Ave NE, defines the movement across the prairie. The topography is dotted with several small water bodies, most notably Kindschi Lake and Stein Lake, which interrupt the rectilinear geometry of the fields. This specific survey provides a record of the land use and drainage patterns of the area at the start of the second decade of the 21st century, showing a landscape almost entirely dedicated to cultivation and ranching.
