USGS Topo · Published 1950About this map
Horseshoe Creek and Spring Creek meander through this 1950 survey of Platte County, which reveals a landscape defined by an intricate network of drainages and ranching infrastructure. Mapping by the Geological Survey as part of the Missouri River Basin development program highlights the importance of water management in this arid region, as evidenced by numerous Windmill sites and a Water Tank positioned to support livestock. The topography is etched with deep channels including Whiskey Gulch, Reeder Draw, and Sand Draw, illustrating the erosional character of the high plains.
