2014 Map of Chappell NW

About this map

Walrath Draw meanders across this high plains landscape on the border of Deuel and Garden Counties, marking a terrain defined by subtle drainage patterns and a strictly organized section-line road network. The northern portion of the map includes the upper reaches of Ash Hollow, a landmark significant to the topography of the Nebraska Panhandle. The map captures a contemporary agricultural environment where transportation is dictated by an expansive grid of rural routes such as Road 34 and Road 30, alongside specifically named thoroughfares like Wheatland Dr and 3 Mile Rd. This late-twentieth and early twenty-first-century survey illustrates how the large-scale ranching and farming operations of the region are serviced by a meticulously maintained system of local connectors that follow the geometry of the original land surveys.
