2012 Map of Lucas

About this map

Lucas serves as the central settlement point in this Gregory County landscape, situated amidst a network of township highways and prairie drainages. The area is defined by the branching paths of N Fork Whetstone Cr and S Fork Whetstone Cr, which carve through the plains toward the northeastern corner where the waters of Lake Francis Case are visible. The grid of rural roads, including Lucas Twp Hwy and Scissors Twp Hwy, reflects a highly organized agricultural layout typical of the region. Local history is anchored at the Lucas Cem, located northwest of the town center. This survey provides a precise view of the rural infrastructure and natural hydrology, from the northern flow of Rush Cr to the southern reaches of Turgeon Twp Hwy near the quadrangle boundary.
