2021 Map of Boiling Spring

About this map

The Calamus River meanders across this corner of the Nebraska Sandhills, defining a landscape of shifting topography where the borders of Brown, Blaine, Loup, and Rock counties converge. The river's path is tracked by the Calamus River Trl, while the eponymous Boiling Spring serves as a distinctive hydrological landmark on the southern bank. This 2021 survey illustrates a remote ranching region where human presence is marked primarily by section lines and gravel paths like 846 Rd. The terrain is characterized by intricate contouring that reveals the complex dune structures typical of this prairie environment, with few permanent structures beyond the occasional rural road such as Co Rd 2 24.
