About this map

The South Branch Point of Rocks Creek meanders across this High Plains landscape in Box Butte County, where the transition from traditional ranching to modern water management is clearly visible. The presence of Uhrig Ranch and Bauer Ranch highlights the area's agricultural identity, reflecting the long-standing land-use patterns of western Nebraska. In the southern reaches of the map, infrastructure such as the Cook NW Dam and the Cook NW Reservoir on Snake Creek illustrate the critical role of water storage in this arid region. The gridded road network, including Lincoln Rd and Hayes Rd, provides the framework for this rural section, marking the square-mile sections that define the Great Plains survey system.
