About this map

The rolling loess hills of central Nebraska define this landscape where Custer Co and Sherman Co meet. The terrain is deeply incised by the seasonal drainages of Clear Creek, which carves through the central and western portions of the quadrangle. In the northwestern corner, Ash Canyon provides a significant break in the topography. A lone point of human interest, the Lone Elm Cem, is situated along 791st Rd, serving as a silent record of early settlement patterns in this agricultural region. Transportation across these ridgelines is anchored by Highway 92 (also labeled Ne-92), which cuts a straight east-west line across the southern third of the map. The remaining landscape is organized by a strictly oriented grid of section-line roads, including 462nd Ave and 464th Ave, reflecting the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the Nebraska prairie.
