2014 Map of Bennett Reservoir East

About this map

Lodgepole Cr meanders across the southern edge of this Kimball County landscape, providing the primary water source for this high-plains region. The waterway is accompanied by the Bennett Canal, an essential irrigation feature that leads directly from the Bennett Reservoir in the southwestern corner. This area of Nebraska is defined by a strictly organized section-line grid, visible through the placement of rural routes such as Co Road 52, Co Road 48, and Co Road 49. The topography is characterized by subtle elevation changes and drainages that feed toward the creek, illustrating the intersection of natural hydrology and the human-engineered water systems required for agricultural viability in the early 21st century.
