2014 Map of Emmet NW

About this map

The Elkhorn River meanders across the northern reaches of this Holt County landscape, defining the local drainage pattern alongside Dry Cr and Holt Cr. The terrain is characterized by the structured grid of Nebraska's rural sections, where a network of section line roads like 870th Rd and 477th Ave provides access to the agricultural interior. This 2014 survey reveals the persistent geometry of the Great Plains land system, showing the relationship between natural watercourses and the human-imposed survey grid. Small depressions and scattered wetlands are visible throughout the southern portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the complex hydrology of the region beyond the main river channel.
