About this map

West Table dominates the high, flat geography of this portion of Custer County, representing the characteristic plateau landscapes of central Nebraska. This 2014 survey illustrates the transition from these elevated tables into the more complex drainage systems below, specifically where the headwaters of Spring Cr begin to carve through the terrain. To the northeast, the land drops away into the Ortello Valley, a distinct geographic depression contrasted against the surrounding uplands.

The human footprint in this rural expanse is defined by a strict grid of section-line roads, such as 11 RD and 10 RD, which facilitate agricultural movement across the high plains. Major corridors like Callaway Rd and the Callaway-Anselmo Rd provide the primary north-south connectivity between regional centers. The map also identifies local landmarks like Pine Canyon Rd and Min Main, which serve as essential reference points for navigating the sparsely populated ranching and farming country.
