1960 Map of Murray Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Hull and Rose precincts define this high plains landscape as it appeared during the early 1960s, a period marked by a transition from traditional ranching to modern infrastructure development. The Stegall South Road bisects the terrain, providing a vital north-south link through a territory carved by ancient drainage systems. A notable information-gain insight is the prominence of a large Pipeline and a Radio Tower, signaling the arrival of industrial and communications utility in this rural corner of the Nebraska Panhandle. The map captures the quiet isolation of the Pleasant Hill Cem near the Hull boundary, while the northern reaches are dominated by the namesake Murray Lake and a series of deep cuts including Shoemaker Canyon and Whipple Canyon. To the south, the wide floodplain of Pumpkin Creek flows parallel to the Pumpkin Creek Road, serving as the primary geographical anchor for local land divisions.
