1973 Map of Rock Canyon

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Muddy Creek and the deep drainage of Rock Canyon define the landscape of Dundy County in this mid-1970s survey. The terrain is a network of sharp erosional features including Kelly Gulch and several deep canyons in the south, such as Hickman Can, Blackwater Can, and Cheyenne Can. Human presence is sparse and largely focused on water access and infrastructure, evidenced by scattered Well sites and a prominent Pipeline cutting through the southern sections. For local history, the Highland Cem stands as a primary landmark of the early community, while the Howard BM 3130 provides a specific reference point for surveyors. The confluence of the North Branch Indian Creek and Indian Creek shows the natural drainage patterns that have historically shaped ranching and movement through this part of the Nebraska plains.
