2021 Map of Chalk Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Chalk Buttes dominates the southwestern corner of this Sioux County landscape, rising as a distinct geological formation above the surrounding high plains. The terrain is defined by a series of intermittent drainages and draws, including Dry Sheep Cr, which snakes through the southern sections. This 2021 topographic survey illustrates a sparsely populated region of western Nebraska where the primary human footprint consists of a geometric grid of sections and a few established rural routes. Local movement is facilitated by several gravel or dirt tracks, including Moore Rd and Murphys Rd along the northern edge, and Morrill Rd, which provides a north-south corridor through the eastern portion of the quadrangle. The map captures the open character of the Nebraska Panhandle, where large-scale land divisions and high-elevation relief dictate the rural structure.
