About this map

Medicine Creek winds through this rural portion of Frontier County, cutting a path through the Nebraska landscape northwest of Maywood. The map highlights the localized water management systems typical of the Great Plains, featuring infrastructure like Upper Medicine Creek Dam 390-B and Brushy Creek Dam 410. These features, along with Farmers Lake and the feeder waters of North Brushy Creek, illustrate the vital role of water conservation in this agricultural region. On the eastern edge of the survey, the Maywood Cemetery serves as a primary point of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The terrain is defined by several prominent drainages, including Lake Canyon and Hay Canyon, which break the upland plateaus and provide natural landmarks for navigating this stretch of the county.
