1956 Map of Wellfleet NW

About this map

Moran Canyon and Well Canyon carve deep drainage patterns through the High Plains of Lincoln County in this mid-century survey. The landscape is defined by vast rangelands and localized land divisions such as Sellers Plant and Elder Box. Surveyed as part of the Department of the Interior's effort to develop the Missouri River Basin, the map illustrates the intricate topography of the Nebraska sandhills region before significant modern development. Notable property or survey designations like Well and Payne appear alongside elevation markers, providing a clear record of the area's physical geography and administrative boundaries during the 1950s.
