2017 Map of Barada

About this map

Barada sits atop the dissected plateau of Richardson County, Nebraska, overlooking a complex network of drainages that feed toward the Missouri River along the eastern boundary. This 2017 survey reveals a landscape deeply connected to its pioneer and family history, evidenced by a high density of rural cemeteries including Harris Cem, Saint Anns Cem, and Moorhead Cem. The terrain is defined by the sharp incisions of Beadlow Cr, Halfbreed Cr, and Winnebago Cr, which create a rugged relief uncommon for the central plains. Transportation is managed by a strict grid of section roads like 653 Ave and 714 Rd, while the interestingly named Dustless Hwy cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle. Modern land management is visible in features like the Winnebago Cr Reservoir 48-3A, which stands in contrast to the natural winding paths of Silver Cr and Goolsby Br.
