About this map

The Niobrara River carves a deep valley through the northern reaches of Nebraska's Sandhills, defining the landscape where Niobrara National Scenic River preservation efforts intersect with private landholdings. This terrain is marked by a complex system of spring-fed tributaries and dramatic relief, notably at Devils Canyon and along the steep banks of Long Pine Creek and Short Pine Creek. The map documents the meeting point of Keya Paha, Brown, and Rock counties, a rural intersection centered around the McLain Bridge crossing.
