1971 Map of Sutherland Reservoir East

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

Sutherland Reservoir Elevation 3043 dominates the northwestern corner of this Lincoln County landscape, serving as a focal point for both water management and recreation. The surrounding Sutherland Reservoir State Park provides a public buffer between the shoreline and the expansive agricultural plains of south-central Nebraska. An intricate network of irrigation infrastructure is evident, with the Outlet Canal drawing water eastward across the quadrangle, supported by a strategically placed Gaging Station. This 1971 survey captures a rural environment defined by the management of water resources in a semi-arid region. Away from the water's edge, the map reveals the quiet presence of local history at the Lemont Cem and numerous scattered wells, reflecting the essential reliance on groundwater for the homesteads and farms that punctuate these townships.
