1971 Map of Ogallala SW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

The South Platte River and its braided channels dominate the northern portion of this landscape, just south of the main Ogallala settlement. This early 1970s survey documents a transitional zone where the irrigation and transport infrastructure of the river valley meets the upland ranching country. The Union Pacific railroad and local fairground signal a hub of regional activity, while the presence of scattered rural education sites like School No 21 and School No 22 highlights the historical distribution of school districts across the High Plains.
