2021 Map of Gables SE

About this map

The rolling sandhill terrain of Garfield and Wheeler counties is defined by the ephemeral flow of Dry Cedar Cr and the more permanent course of Cedar Creek in the northeastern corner. This 2021 study illustrates a landscape primarily shaped by section-line roads and sparse drainage patterns typical of the Nebraska interior. The eastern boundary of the quadrangle follows the Garfield Co Wheeler Co line, providing a clear jurisdictional marker across the undulating topography. Local transit is facilitated by a network of rural routes including Cedar River Rd, Silver Rd, and the uniquely named Joint Loop. This map documents the essential hydrology and road infrastructure that supports the region's agricultural character, tracing the paths of early range development through contemporary land use divisions.
