2011 Map of Almeria NW

About this map

The North Loup River winds through this section of Loup County, defining the drainage patterns and valley structure of the Nebraska landscape. This area is characterized by large agricultural and ranching holdings, notably the Peterson Ranch located in the northern reaches of the quadrangle. The map captures the organized rural road network that facilitates movement through the valley, with named routes like Pleasant Valley Rd and W End Rd following the natural contours of the river basin. County roads such as Co Rd 6 and Co Rd 1-22 provide a grid-like framework connecting the more isolated ranch properties to the primary east-west corridors. This 2011 survey reflects the enduring cattle-ranching and farming tradition of the region, where the river remains the central geographic feature and primary resource for the local economy.
