2011 Map of Eddyville NW

About this map

The South Loup River carves a winding path across this section of Custer County, defining the drainage patterns for the surrounding Nebraska prairie. This survey captures a rural landscape dominated by natural watercourses, where the river's broad meanders contrast with the straighter channels of Ash Creek to the north. In the southern reaches of the map, the headwaters and tributaries of Burr Oak Creek and the Wood River begin to emerge, illustrating the subtle divide between different watershed systems. The road network follows the section lines typical of the Great Plains, occasionally diverging to bridge the river and its smaller feeders. This map provides a clear view of the hydrological features that have dictated land use and property boundaries in this part of the state for generations.
