About this map

The Platte River corridor serves as the central artery for this landscape where Saunders, Sarpy, and Cass counties meet. The convergence of Wahoo Creek and Salt Creek near the city of Ashland highlights a complex hydrologic network, further defined by the Western Sarpy Ditch and the Patte River to the north. This 2014 survey documents a region defined by river-bottom geography and recreational developments like Linoma Beach and Beacon View, alongside established upland settlements such as Gretna.

Genealogists and local historians can locate specific landmarks including Wortman Cem and the small communities of Melia, Riverside, and Abel. The map also captures several man-made water features and reservoirs, such as Philpot Reservoir and Thousand Oaks Lake, which suggest a land managed for both agricultural irrigation and residential expansion near the river's winding path around Wilburn Island.
