About this map

The Elkhorn River meanders across this Holt County landscape, anchoring a region defined by its waterway and recreational history. Along the northern bends, the Chain Lakes and Learys Lakes provide distinct landmarks in a terrain characterized by its water features and section-line roads. The settlement of Stafford sits near the center of the sheet, serving as a focal point for the surrounding rural road network.

Modern transportation and historical routes converge here, most notably along the Cowboy Trl, which cuts diagonally across the prairie. This multi-use path occupies a former rail corridor, tracing the legacy of the regional transport system that once connected these small Nebraska communities. The grid of local routes like Union Rd and Tailor Rd illustrates the organized agricultural layout of the early 21st century.
