1963 Map of Torrington SE

About this map

The North Platte River flows through a landscape defined by historical passage and sophisticated irrigation systems along the border of Goshen and Sioux counties. The Emigrant Trail traces a path across the southern plains, marked by a Historical Monument and the rail infrastructure of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad. This region in the early 1960s was an intricate network of water management, evidenced by the extensive canal and ditch systems including the Interstate Canal and numerous numbered laterals like Lateral No 1 through Lateral No 8. The settlement of Henry sits near the state line, while agricultural life is anchored by landmarks like Hunton Meadows and local structures including a Sch and Cem. The map reveals the critical link between the river corridor and the high ground of Chalk Buttes, showing how the land was adapted for farming through the Emigrant Trail Burlington Ditch.
