About this map

The Republican River and its managed tributaries dominate this landscape south of Bartley, where agricultural water systems define the valley's character. The presence of the B Artley C Anal and the Smith Dam at Smith Reservoir highlights the critical role of irrigation in Red Willow County's farming economy. Away from the river bottoms, the terrain rises into features like Stevenson Canyon and the open flats of Lee Field.

Evidence of the region's rural social fabric is preserved through locations like Trinity Cemetery and historic educational sites such as School Creek School and School Number 60. The network of drainages, including Sleepy Hollow Creek, School Creek, and Silver Creek, provides a geographic skeleton for researchers tracing the development of land use and family homesteads across this portion of the Nebraska plains.
