1972 Map of Potter SW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The high plains along the Nebraska-Colorado border define this 1970s landscape, where state and county lines intersect amidst a network of energy infrastructure. The Nebraska Colorado boundary runs horizontally across the lower third of the map, while the vertical divide between Kimball Co Cheyenne Co and Kimball Co Logan Co marks the transition between local jurisdictions. Industrial activity is prominent, with an extensive Oil Field and numerous scattered Oil Wells connected by a long-distance Pipeline that traverses the northern sections. Topographically, the area is dominated by the broad, low depression of Sidney Draw, which snakes through the southern portion of the quadrangle. This survey provides a precise look at the rural economy of the period, emphasizing the extraction of natural resources through features like a Gravel Pit alongside the steady expansion of the regional petroleum industry.
