2017 Map of Ainsworth SW

About this map

Sandridge occupies a central position in this Brown County landscape, where the Sand Hills terrain is defined by a network of ephemeral watercourses and small ranching reservoirs. The drainage patterns of Sand Draw and Bone Cr cut through the sections, illustrating the hydrologic character of the region. Local history is anchored by the Grand Prairie Cem in the northwest and the German Cem further east, which serve as long-standing markers of the area's early settlement. The presence of the Ainsworth Regional Airport near the western edge of the map highlights the modern transportation infrastructure serving this rural part of the state. Small-scale water management is evident through features like the Snyder Group Reservoir and Budde Reservoir, which reflect the essential relationship between water access and the local agricultural economy.
