2017 Map of Angora NW

About this map

Hay Valley occupies the eastern portion of this Nebraska landscape, where the topography is defined by the ephemeral drainage patterns of the High Plains. The drainage of Red Willow Cr and W Water Cr carves through the terrain, illustrating the hydrologic network of Morrill County before it meets larger tributaries. The area is organized by a strict rectilinear grid of county roads, including Rd 89 and Rd 128, which follow the section lines of the Public Land Survey System. This network of rural routes serves as the primary infrastructure for the dispersed ranching or agricultural operations indicated by the township and range divisions of t23n r51w and t22n r50w. The map provides a clear look at the sparsely settled geography of the Panhandle, where water sources and road access dictate the pattern of human presence.
