About this map

The Middle Loup River winds through the southern reaches of this Nebraska Sandhills landscape, creating a vital corridor for transportation and ranching during the mid-twentieth century. Following the river's northern bank, the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad connects the village of Seneca to the smaller siding at Kelso. The surrounding terrain is defined by vast depressions like Barent Valley and Calf Creek Valley, where isolated ranching operations such as the Simonson and Lowe Ranch, Phillips Ranch, and Edelman Ranch established their holdings.
