1974 Map of Riverton
USGS Topo · Published 1977About this map
Republican River valley bottomlands dominate the landscape of south-central Nebraska in this mid-1970s survey, where an intricate irrigation network supports the local agricultural economy. The Franklin Canal, Franklin Pump Canal, and South Side Canal trace the contours of the valley, reflecting the 20th-century engineering required to manage water in this prairie region. The village of Riverton sits at the junction of the Burlington Northern railroad and several major drainage systems, including Thompson Creek.
