2017 Map of Closter

About this map

The border of Antelope and Boone Counties divides this agricultural landscape, where the township grid system dictates the movement of travel and trade. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, the small settlement of Closter sits along Shell Creek, serving as a focal point for the surrounding farmsteads. Local history and genealogy interests are centered at Zion West Cemetery, located along 290th Avenue. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage systems, including Saint Clair Creek and Ives Creek, which carve subtle valleys through the prairie. This 2017 survey documents the modern layout of the rural road network, from standard section-line routes like 100th Street to the more primitive Minimum Maintance Road, reflecting the enduring reliance on these corridors for accessing Nebraska's interior farm country.
