1898 Map of Scotts Bluff

USGS Topo · Published 1949

About this map

The North Platte River defines the northern reaches of this Panhandle landscape, where late 19th-century irrigation efforts are visible through the Enterprise Canal and Farmers Canal. The survey captures the region just as the Chicago Burlington and Quincy RR began to solidify the local economy, connecting early settlements like Mitchell and Gering. South of the river, the striking geology of the Wildcat Hills emerges, featuring Scotts Bluff National Monument, Mitchell Pass, and the prominent Dome Rock.
