2017 Map of Broken Bow SW

About this map

Union Valley and the elevated flat of Ryno Table define the agricultural landscape of this Custer County corridor during the late 2010s. The terrain is characterized by the intricate drainage of Ash Cr, which carves through the undulating prairie to create the distinctive Ash Creek Canyon Rd route. The map documents a rural network where modern infrastructure like State Hwy 21 parallels the traces of Old Hwy 21, showing the evolution of local transit. Geologic markers such as Britten Spr indicate the vital water sources that supported early settlement in this section of the Nebraska loess hills. These labels provide a clear view of how land use and topography dictated the placement of homesteads and connecting routes like Ryno Rd and Sumner Rd.
