1979 Map of South Of Gabe Rock

About this map

The High Plains landscape south of Gabe Rock is defined by the winding course of Rocky Hollow, which carves through the terrain as it crosses from the Banner and Kimball County line. This 1970s landscape reflects an active period of resource extraction, with an extensive Oil Field and numerous Oil Wells peppered across the plateau. The topography is marked by localized high points like Badger, while human activity is evidenced by a prominent Radio Tower and a Gravel Pit near the western boundary. The map captures a transition in land use, where traditional rangeland meets the industrial footprint of the energy sector, providing a precise record of well locations and access roads in this part of the Nebraska panhandle.
