1971 Map of Wray NE

About this map

Colorado Nebraska state lines meet at the intersection of Yuma Co and Dundy Co in this 1970s survey, illustrating a remote landscape defined by high plains agriculture and resource extraction. The map captures a transition point where the eastern edge of Yuma County, Colorado, meets Dundy County, Nebraska, showing a terrain dotted with numerous Well sites that indicate the importance of water management in this arid region. The presence of the Ceres Ranch and a remote Landing Strip highlights the scale of local ranching operations and the necessity of aerial transport for connectivity. This edition, updated with 1980s data, provides a detailed look at the rural section lines and boundary markers that organized the land during a period of steady agricultural production.
