2017 Map of Keystone

About this map

The North Platte River and South Platte River define the hydraulic character of this Keith County landscape, carving parallel paths across the plains. Between these two major waterways, the Sutherland Canal cuts a distinct industrial line, part of the region's managed water network. The settlement of Keystone sits at a junction of regional routes like Keystone Lake Rd and Keystone Sarben Rd, while the southern edge of the map is anchored by the community of Roscoe along Roscoe 1st St. Smaller tributaries such as Whitetail Creek and Spring Cr feed into the river systems, illustrating the drainage patterns that have shaped local agriculture and transit. The map reveals a high density of rural section roads, including Rd East 170 and Rd 160, which trace the grid-based development of the Nebraska panhandle.
