2011 Map of Bayard

About this map

Bayard serves as the primary hub in this Nebraska landscape, characterized by a complex network of man-made waterways designed for large-scale agricultural irrigation. The town's layout is centered near the Bayard Post Office and Ninemile Canal, which works in tandem with the Short Line Canal to manage the region's water resources. This intricate system of infrastructure is further evidenced by features like Wildhorse Dam 14-A and Wildhorse Dam 5-A, which help control the Wildhorse Drain as it moves toward the Tri-State Canal. To the north and west, the terrain transitions toward Wildhorse Canyon and smaller settlements such as Moomaw Corner and Craft. The presence of the Chimney Rock Golf Course and recreational points like Davidson Dam reflects the modern development of this rural corridor along the North Platte River valley.
