2017 Map of Cowboy Hill

About this map

Cowboy Hill rises as the central topographic landmark in this sparsely settled region of Morrill County. The landscape is characterized by a complex network of ephemeral wetlands and depressions, indicating a terrain where water drainage and soil composition dictate land use. Human presence is light, defined primarily by the rectilinear boundaries of the Public Land Survey System, including t23n r49w and t22n r48w. Aside from the occasional track like Co Rd 62, the area remains largely open, reflecting a ranching or conservation environment typical of the Nebraska panhandle in the early twenty-first century.
