About this map

Pleasant Valley anchors this agricultural landscape in central Nebraska, where the borders of Buffalo, Custer, and Sherman Counties converge. The terrain is defined by a dendritic network of intermittent drainages, including Oak Cr, Swenson Cr, and Spring Br, which carve through the plains. This 2014 survey illustrates a highly organized section-line road system, with routes like Sartoria Rd and Riverdale Rd providing access to the vast farmsteads and ranching lands that dominate the region.

A significant water management feature in the southern portion of the map is Unick Reservoir, located along the winding path of Dry Cr. The infrastructure shown, including Pleasant Valley Rd and Dove Hill Rd, reflects a modern rural economy still deeply tied to the land and its natural waterways. The sparse naming of settlements indicates a region primarily dedicated to large-scale agriculture, where the landscape is navigated by a grid of named avenues and roads that trace the early twentieth-century township patterns.
