2021 Map of Bartlett NW

About this map

Buffalo Flats dominates the northeastern reaches of this Wheeler County landscape, characterized by the undulating sand hills typical of central Nebraska. This 2021 survey reveals a sparsely populated terrain where the natural topography dictates the movement of water and the placement of roads. In the far northeast corner, the waters of Beaver Cr cut through the plains, representing the primary drainage for the area. The human presence here is defined by a rigid section-line grid of gravel and dirt routes, including 839th Rd, 489 Ave, and 832 Rd. These roads segment the territory into the traditional townships of t23n r12w, t23n r11w, t22n r12w, and t22n r11w, illustrating the enduring influence of the Public Land Survey System on the Nebraska ranching interior.
