About this map

Lake Maloney dominates the southern portion of this landscape, its waters broken by Scout Island, Goose Island, Two Tree Island, and Duck Island. Fed by the Outlet Canal, the reservoir is a central feature of the hydrologic network south of North Platte. To the north, the South Platte River and its accompanying wetlands, including Beer Slough and Fremont Slough, illustrate the complex drainage patterns of the Platte River valley.

Settlement patterns extend from the southern edge of North Platte, where the Saint Patrick Cem and Floral Lawns Memorial Gardens are situated near the city's expanding residential grid. The transition from urban streets to rural sections is marked by an extensive network of named roads like W State Farm Rd and W Miller School Rd, reflecting the agricultural and educational infrastructure that has long defined Lincoln County's development outside the primary township.
