About this map

The high plains of the Nebraska Colorado border come into sharp focus in the early 1970s, where the rural landscape is defined by the intermittent drainage of Cow Creek and Cottonwood Creek. This survey captures the region during the expansion of the modern interstate era, as Interstate 80 cuts across the northern edge of the map, contrasting with the legacy of local education represented by School No 97. The terrain is marked by essential infrastructure and industry for the period, including several Gravel Pits and a prominent Radio Tower. The map provides a precise record of the administrative boundary where Cheyenne County, Nebraska and Logan County, Colorado meet, illustrating a sparsely populated ranching or agricultural environment at the height of the 20th century.
