About this map

The confluence of the North Platte River and South Platte River valley defines this Lincoln County landscape during the early 1970s. The village of Sutherland serves as the local hub, situated between the river systems and the southern Keith Lincoln County Canal. Transportation and irrigation infrastructure dominate the area, from the Union Pacific railroad tracks to the Trego Landing Strip and the complex network of waterways including the Paxton Hershey Canal. Water management is central to the valley's character, evidenced by the Diversion Dam and several gaging stations. Further south, the Sutherland Reservoir Park and Sutherland Cemetery provide fixed points for local genealogy and land-use studies, while nearby Gravel Pits indicate the era's local extractive industry.
