1966 Map of Sand Canyon East

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Antelope and West Mirage tablelands define this section of the Nebraska panhandle as recorded in 1966. The landscape is marked by the deep incision of Sand Canyon and Craig canyon, illustrating the stark topographical transitions common to this region of Dawes and Sheridan Counties. Settlement patterns are sparse, characterized by isolated rural institutions that served the local ranching community. Educational and social life centered on locations like New Home Sch and Chimney Butte Sch, while the Antelope Valley Cem in the northwest corner stands as a primary genealogical marker for the area's early residents. Near Hay Springs, the map tracks basic infrastructure such as several Gravel Pits, which provided the essential materials for maintaining the unimproved and light-duty roads that connected these remote High Plains homesteads.
