1948 Map of Spade Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Spade Ranch and the tiny settlement of Argo anchor this 1940s landscape, characterized by an intricate system of valleys and depressions in the Nebraska Sandhills. The area is dotted with numerous small bodies of water, from the large Mother Lake in the south to Smith Lake, Spring Lake, and Bunger Lake. These water sources define the agricultural patterns of the region, where ranching interests are spread across named terrain features like White Valley, Willow Valley, and Wolford Valley.
