2017 Map of Curtis NW

About this map

Maywood and Wellfleet anchor this 2017 survey of the Nebraska loess plains, where the Lincoln Co Frontier Co boundary line bisects a landscape defined by deep drainage patterns. The hydrology of the region is centered on the winding path of Medicine Cr, supported by significant tributaries like N Brushy Cr and S Brushy Cr. These waterways have carved distinct topographic features such as Lake Canyon, Hay Canyon, and Elkhorn Canyon, which dictate the local road network and land use. Local history and genealogy interest is concentrated near the settlement of Maywood, which includes the Maywood Cem and the intersection of several rural routes. Smaller natural landmarks like Opal Spring and Farmers Lake dot the northern reaches, providing essential water sources in this transition between upland plateaus and carved creek valleys.
