1978 Map of Lone Sand Hill

About this map

Wyoming and Nebraska share a quiet, high-plains border on this topographic survey, where the landscape is defined by the subtle rising contours of the Great Plains. The most prominent landmark is Lone Sand Hill, a distinctive topographic feature situated near the center of the sheet. This area is characterized by vast open spaces and sparse industrial activity, represented primarily by a single Well located in the northwestern portion of the quadrangle. The map captures the geometric precision of the Goshen and Sioux County boundary as it intersects with the state line, illustrating the methodical township and range system that organized this section of the American West. There are no major settlements or significant drainage systems noted, reflecting a landscape that remained largely unpopulated and dedicated to ranching or resource extraction at the time of the field inspection.
