1972 Map of Potter SE

About this map

Nebraska Colorado state line monuments define the lower section of this 1972 survey, where the high plains terrain transitions into the complex drainage of Sidney Draw. The landscape is largely defined by this expansive seasonal watercourse and the surrounding plateaus, showing a region structured by large-scale ranching and industrial infrastructure. Evidence of local utility development is visible through a prominent Pipeline cutting across the northern sections. The small settlement of Olsen sits amidst the rolling topography, while concentrated activity is centered around several Gravel Pits and a Gravel Pit located further west. Numerous wells are scattered throughout the draws, indicating the critical importance of groundwater management in this high-altitude border region.
