About this map

Deep drainage networks define the topography of this Lincoln County landscape, where N Plum Cr and Plum Cr carve through the high plains. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant canyons including Gulch Canyon, Jeffrey Canyon, and the sprawling East Deer Creek Canyon. These natural features dictate the path of rural transit, with local routes like Callahan Rd and Gilman Rd following the high ridges and valley floors.

This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a sparsely populated region primarily organized by the Public Land Survey System, as seen in the clear section boundaries of T10N R26W and T11N R27W. The infrastructure is distinctly rural, marked by family-named roads such as McPheeters Rd, Lydic Rd, and McNickle Rd that suggest long-standing land ownership and agricultural heritage in the western Nebraska sandhills and canyons.
