1986 Map of Tarbox Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Tarbox Lake and the meandering course of the South Fork Loup River dominate this pocket of Logan County as it appeared in the mid-1980s. The landscape is characterized by the complex drainage patterns of the Sandhills, where water bodies like Tarbox Lake sit within a network of intermittent streams and marshes. Notable topographic relief is found at Shanklin Bluff, which overlooks the river valley from the north. This 1986 provisional edition, based on earlier aerial photography, captures a transitional period in Nebraska ranching country, showing the minimal road infrastructure and the natural state of the river's south fork before significant modern alteration. The map provides a clear record of section lines and township boundaries, including the junction of T 19 N and T 18 N, which are essential for tracing land ownership and genealogy in this sparsely populated region.
