1972 Map of Stapleton NW

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

The South Loup River winds through the northern portion of this Nebraska landscape, providing a critical water source in a region defined by its wide-ranging cattle operations. Settled during an era of ranching expansion, the area is home to established sites like the Rundback Ranch and Fowler Ranch, which highlight the importance of family-owned livestock territories in Logan County. This 1972 survey captures the transition between McPherson, Logan, and Lincoln counties, where political boundaries meet the practical needs of the high plains. Genealogy and local history are anchored at the Loup Valley Cemetery, while several marked Well locations across the terrain illustrate the vital infrastructure required to support life and industry away from the river banks.
