About this map

The North Platte River carves through this western Nebraska landscape, defining the irrigation and settlement patterns of the late nineteenth century. In the Mitchell Bottom, an extensive network of ditches including the Enterprise Canal, Farmers Canal, and Mitchell Canal illustrates the early reliance on water management for prairie agriculture. South of the river, the striking topography of the Wildcat Hills emerges, featuring landmarks like Scotts Bluff, Dome Rock, and Signal Butte.
