1957 Map of Riverton NE

About this map

Missouri Valley and the surrounding high desert of Fremont County are defined here by a complex network of mid-century irrigation infrastructure. During the post-war era, the expansion of the Pilot Canal and Riverton No 2 Canal transformed this arid landscape, supporting the agricultural development of the Riverton Reclamation Withdrawal Area. The map illustrates how human engineering interacts with natural drainage, as the canals intersect Sand Gulch and Fivemile Creek while providing water to the farmsteads along Missouri Valley Road.
