2017 Map of Erdman Ranch

About this map

Erdman Ranch and the surrounding high plains of Sioux County are defined by an intricate network of irrigation systems and cattle ranching infrastructure. This landscape, located just north of the Scotts Bluff County line, relies heavily on the Interstate Canal and its associated waterways like Lateral 21 Main and Lateral Number 1 to sustain the agricultural operations in the area known as Dutch Flats. The topography is marked by drainage basins such as Dry Spottedtail Cr and Spottedtail Cr, which carve through the terrain near landmarks like Rattlesnake Hill. A grid of rural roads, including Co Rd Shopping Center and Cook Rd, provides access to the scattered homesteads and pastures that characterize this portion of the Nebraska panhandle during the early twenty-first century.
