About this map

Arnold stands as the central hub of this Sandhills landscape, situated at the confluence of the S Loup River and its southern branch. The town's grid is clearly defined by streets such as W Washington Ave and S Carroll St, with the recreational Arnold Lake located just to the south. The surrounding terrain is characterized by a complex network of tablelands and drainages, most notably Judkins Table in the north and the deep incisions of Devils Den Canyon.

Evidence of early rural life is preserved in the location of the Arnold Cem and the more remote Powell Canyon Cem to the east. The map captures a transition between the valley floor agriculture of Mills Valley and the more specialized environments of Yucca Valley. Local connectivity is maintained by a series of numbered and named roads, including Mills Valley Rd and Devils Gulch Rd, which follow the natural contours of the Platte river system's upper reaches.
