2017 Map of Ashton

About this map

Ashton anchors the northern edge of this Nebraska landscape, organized by a precise grid of rural routes including Rockville Ave and 787 Rd. The settlement is defined by residential streets such as W Carleton St and W Washington St, while the surrounding terrain is deeply carved by numerous drainages that feed into larger waterways. The southern boundary is marked by the wide channel of the Middle Loup River, which contrasts with the intricate seasonal creek systems like Oak Cr and Deer Cr that bisect the upland pastures. For those tracing local heritage, Union Cem is located east of the main north-south corridor, situated among the rolling breaks typical of Sherman County. Water management is evident at Gregg Reservoir in the northwest, reflecting the region's agricultural dependency on surface water collection in an area otherwise characterized by intermittent stream flow.
