2011 Map of Koshopah

About this map

Goose Creek meanders southward through this rural Nebraska landscape, eventually joining the wider North Loup River in the southern portion of the quadrangle. This area of Brown County is characterized by sparsely populated rangeland and the braided channels typical of the Sandhills region. The settlement of Koshopah is located in the northwest, serving as a focal point in a territory defined by expansive open spaces and a network of county roads. Local genealogy and history are preserved at small burial sites such as Valley View Cemetery in the north and Hawley Flats Cemetery near the river. These markers, along with the landing at Hawley Flats, indicate the legacy of early ranching and river-based settlement patterns that have persisted into the twenty-first century.
