2011 Map of Cameron

About this map

Prairie Creek and Flash Creek wind through this Hall County landscape, illustrating a complex system of water management and rural settlement. The small community of Cameron sits near the eastern edge, serving as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural grid. The map highlights significant local infrastructure designed for water control, including the Taylor Floodwater Retarding Dam and the Benton and Still Dam, which contains the Benton and Still Reservoir. These features, alongside the Prairie Creek Reservoir Number 4, reveal how the mid-century expansion of irrigation and flood prevention reshaped the Nebraska plains. For those tracing local heritage, the Mount Pleasant Cemetery stands in the northeast, providing a tangible link to the families who established these farmsteads along routes like W Old Potash Hwy and W Husker Hwy.
