2021 Map of Cody Lake NW

About this map

Sandhills topography and long-established property boundaries define this rural landscape at the meeting point of Logan, McPherson, and Thomas Counties. The terrain is a complex of undulating ridges and depressions typical of the region, where roads often follow the natural contours of the land or the straight lines of the Public Land Survey System. In the southwest, Old Homestead Rd and Trumbull Rd suggest the early ranching and settlement patterns of this isolated area. The map illustrates how transportation in this part of Nebraska relies on a sparse network of named routes such as Starr Dr, Fietchner Rd, and Lutes Rd, which connect remote homesteads across the county lines. This 2021 survey provides a clear view of the modern rural infrastructure and the persistent township and range divisions that have organized these Nebraska hills for generations.
