About this map

Union Valley and the elevated plateau of Ryno Table characterize this section of central Nebraska, where the landscape is defined by the sharp transition between level upland plains and the drainage systems of the Sandhills region. The intricate contour work illustrates the erosional patterns leading into Ash Cr, a waterway that carves through the central portion of the quadrangle. Transport in the early 21st century follows a mix of modern state infrastructure and local rural routes, most notably Ne-21, which runs north-south across the dissected terrain. The placement of Ryno Rd and Sumner Rd provides a clear view of the section-line road grid that has dictated land use and property boundaries in Custer County since the homesteading era.
