2021 Map of Lexington NW

About this map

Agricultural water management and the rolling topography of Dawson County define this interior Nebraska landscape. The map reveals a dense network of water storage sites, including Katy West Reservoir and the twin basins of O Connor Reservoir Number 1 and O Connor Reservoir Number 2. These features, alongside School Land Reservoir Number 1 and its counterpart School Land Reservoir Number 2, indicate a sophisticated system of land use and resource conservation. A sparse but deliberate grid of local roads, such as Smokey Hill Rd and Cracker Box Rd, connects isolated ranching or farming operations. The terrain is marked by intricate drainage patterns leading to reservoirs like Longley Reservoir and Prasch Reservoir, illustrating how the modern rural economy adapts to the semi-arid environment of the High Plains.
