2017 Map of Cody SE

About this map

The Niobrara River carves a distinct path through this section of Cherry County, creating a sharp contrast between the riparian corridor and the surrounding sandhills. In the southern portion of the map, the Samuel R McKelvie National Forest encompasses a landscape of rolling terrain and prairie, south of where State Hwy Spur 16F cuts through the hills. This 2017 survey documents the area's limited infrastructure, notably the Riemenschneider Bridge crossing the river, and the isolated Buckhorn Spring. To the north, the terrain is marked by McCann Canyon, illustrating the drainage patterns that feed into the Niobrara basin. The map provides a detailed view of the Public Land Survey System grid across multiple townships, serving as a primary reference for property boundaries and land management in this cattle-ranching region.
