2014 Map of Grainton

About this map

The small settlement of Grainton occupies a prominent position in this Perkins County landscape, situated along a primary east-west transportation corridor. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of sectional roads and the winding path of Blackwood Cr, which meanders across the southern half of the quadrangle. Agricultural land use is evident through the systematic road grid, including Grover Ave and Garver Ave, and the presence of Harns Reservoir to the north. This 2014 survey documents the enduring rural structure of the Nebraska plains, where the interplay between natural drainages and straight-line property boundaries remains the primary characteristic of the high plains environment.
