1966 Map of Sand Canyon West

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

Antelope Canyon dominates the central portion of this 1960s survey, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Dawes County landscape. The terrain is defined by the winding course of Pepper Creek, which cuts through the high plains of the Nebraska Panhandle. This area, part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, shows a sparse but functional infrastructure. A solitary Substation sits near the southern boundary in the Craig precinct, a reminder of the rural electrification and utility expansion that reached these remote sections of the state during the mid-20th century. The map provides a meticulous record of fence lines and field boundaries as they existed in the years following the 1965 aerial photography and 1966 field check.
