2011 Map of Litchfield NE

About this map

Bloody Run Creek and Wiggle Creek define the drainage patterns of this rural Sherman County landscape, where the agricultural grid is etched into the terrain by local thoroughfares like Hazard Rd and various instances of Co Rd. The map illustrates a classic Great Plains hydrology, featuring a network of seasonal and perennial watercourses such as Brown Creek, Clear Creek, and Mud Creek that meander through the prairie. This 2011 survey captures the area's enduring reliance on a systematic road network to navigate the undulating land between Dry Creek and other local tributaries, providing a clear record of the rural infrastructure and land use in central Nebraska at the start of the 21st century.
