About this map

Agricultural patterns and a precise section-line road network define this corner of Dundy County, Nebraska, as it appeared in the early 21st century. The landscape is organized by the Public Land Survey System, specifically within the townships of t3n r39w, t3n r38w, t2n r39w, and t2n r38w. This geometry is reflected in the arterial grid of local connectors, including north-south corridors like Ave 327 and Ave 329 that bisect the dry plains.

Remote rural access is facilitated by secondary roads such as Lutz Rd and Rd 718, which trace the property boundaries of the High Plains. The absence of named settlements or heavy infrastructure highlights the area's specialized use for large-scale ranching or farming. This survey provides a baseline for understanding the land division and the sparse but essential transportation links, such as Rd 712, that connect this portion of the state to the larger regional trade network.
