About this map

The South Platte River cuts a wide, braided path through this section of Keith County, Nebraska, defining the region's agricultural and transit corridors. The braided river system is closely paralleled by the Western Canal, which weaves across the landscape south of the main channel. To the north, Chase Canyon marks a break in the upland terrain. This 2011 survey illustrates the modern intersection of irrigation infrastructure and aviation, featuring both Maloney Dam and Detention Dam 1, alongside small aviation sites like Searle Airport and Shelburnes Airport. The landscape is organized by a rigorous grid of rural roads, such as Road W 60 and Road W 30, supporting the large-scale ranching and farming operations typical of the High Plains.
