1978 Map of Sanborn Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Rube Cemetery stands as a quiet focal point in this high plains landscape of Lincoln County, documenting the rural character of the region in the late 1970s. The map illustrates a complex water management system essential for agriculture and ranching, featuring the Sanborn Reservoir, Douglas Reservoir, and the connecting Douglas Ditch. Drainage is defined by the convergence of the West Branch Steels Fork and East Branch Steels Fork into the main channel of Steels Fork. A solitary Landing Strip and a modern Pipeline cut across the sections, indicating the integration of localized infrastructure into the expansive prairie. This survey provides a precise view of a working landscape where natural features like Pond Creek are modified by human engineering to sustain the local economy.
