About this map

High plains ranching and the open rangeland of the Nebraska Panhandle define this landscape as it was mapped in the late 1970s. The settlement at Buckley stands as a focal point in a region primarily characterized by its vast topographic relief and the sparse infrastructure necessary for high-desert survival. The network of light-duty and unimproved roads connects isolated water sources, frequently marked simply as Well, which were vital for the cattle operations that dominated Sioux County. An old Trail cuts across the northern sections, suggesting long-established paths through the draws and ridges that predate the modern road grid. This survey serves as a record of rural land use in a corner of Nebraska where the elevation and arid climate dictated a low-density settlement pattern focused on livestock and water management.
