2011 Map of Barrel Springs Creek South

About this map

Snake Creek meanders through the heart of this section of Box Butte County, defining a landscape marked by essential water management in an arid Nebraska environment. The 2011 survey highlights small-scale ranching and agricultural infrastructure, notably the Cook SE Reservoir and its associated Cook SE Dam in the western reaches. Further east, the Tiernan Dam provides another point of water control along the drainage basins. The local transport network is characterized by a precise grid of section-line roads, including Otoe Rd, Perkins Rd, and Thomas Rd, which facilitate movement across the High Plains terrain. This map serves as a clear record of land use and water engineering in the early 21st century.
