About this map

The Little Blue River winds through the northeast corner of this agricultural region on the border between Nebraska and Kansas. The terrain is defined by a dense network of drainages including Rose Cr, Silver Cr, and Dry Br, which carve through the plains. Local history is anchored at the Silver Creek Cem located near the intersection of 565th Ave and 705th Rd. The southern edge of the survey is defined by State Line Rd, marking the boundary between Jefferson and Washington Counties. In the north, Haake Reservoir provides a significant water feature amidst a grid of rural roads such as Crystal Springs Rd and Ne-8. This landscape reflects a late-period digital survey of the rural Midwest, where section lines and creek beds dictate the placement of farmsteads and transport routes.
