2011 Map of Bucktail
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
The Bucktail settlement and surrounding Sandhills rangeland define this section of Arthur County as it appeared in the early 21st century. This landscape is characterized by its significant cattle ranching heritage, with local operations such as Sizer Ranch and Sunnyside Ranch distributed across a topography of broad basins. Notable geographic depressions including Sunnyside Valley, Center Valley, and Mell Valley dictate the path of local travel. Transportation is facilitated by a network of rural routes such as Whitman Rd and Bucktail Rd, while the hydrology of the area is anchored by Bucktail Lake in the southern reaches. This survey provides a clear view of the sparse, ranch-oriented settlement patterns that persist in this remote corner of the Nebraska plains.
