1898 Map of Scotts Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

The North Platte River serves as the focal point for this late 19th-century survey of western Nebraska, where the landscape transitions from the broad Mitchell Bottom to the dramatic bluffs of the Roubadeau and Scotts Bluff National Monument. The early irrigation infrastructure of the high plains is visible through the Farmers Canal and Enterprise Canal, supporting the growing settlements of Gering, Mitchell, and Scottsbluff.
