Butte serves as the focal point of this northern Nebraska landscape, situated near the South Dakota border in Boyd County. The town site is clearly detailed with a grid including Broadway St, Gale St, and Sample St. To the northwest, the settlement of Anoka sits along Railroad St, illustrating the importance of early transport corridors through the region. The map reveals a high density of small-scale water management projects, such as Reiser Reservoir, Reiman Reservoir, and the Lampman Reservoir Number 1, which supported agriculture in this rolling terrain. Local history and genealogy are anchored by several burial sites, including the Old Settlers Cem, Lutheran Cem, and the Butte Cem Saints Peter and Paul Cem. The natural geography is defined by the winding paths of Ponca Cr and Dizzy Cr, punctuated by the distinctive elevation of Harvey Buttes.
