2011 Map of Altona NE

About this map

Pleasant Valley Cemetery stands as a quiet focal point in this portion of Thurston County, situated along a grid of rural roads like 585th Ave and 850th Rd. The landscape is defined by its water management and agricultural infrastructure, most notably the channelized path of the Logan Creek Dredge which cuts a straight line through the territory. Natural drainage persists through the winding courses of Coon Creek and Rattlesnake Creek, illustrating the intersection of natural hydrology and man-made modification. This 2011 survey also documents the local agricultural economy, specifically noting the location of Bruns Feedlot in the central part of the quadrangle. The map captures a meticulously organized section of the Nebraska prairie, where precise section lines and maintained thoroughfares dictate the flow of rural life and land use.
