About this map

Perkins County's high plains landscape in the southwest corner of Nebraska is defined here by the systematic grid of the Public Land Survey System, as mapped in 2017. The terrain is characterized by subtle depressions and seasonal wetlands typical of the Nebraska panhandle’s eastern edge. Infrastructure is sparse, consisting primarily of gravel section-line roads such as Co Rd 767 and Co Rd 315 that navigate the township lines of t12n r41w and t11n r40w. This survey provides a precise record of land divisions and the few arterial routes, like Co Rd 317, that connect the agricultural interior to the wider region. The lack of named settlements or permanent structures underscores the expansive, open nature of this prairie territory during the early twenty-first century.
