About this map

Loma and the eastern edge of Brainard anchor this rural landscape along the border of Butler and Saunders counties. The region is defined by an intricate network of drainage and water management, featuring numerous catchments like Ptacek Reservoir and Vandenberg Reservoir. These water bodies are connected by the winding paths of Skull Cr, Middle Oak Cr, and Hunters Slough, which carve through the undulating agricultural land.

Local history is preserved at the Holy Trinity Cem and the Loma Cem, providing important touchstones for genealogical research. The transportation network follows a strict sectional grid, intersected by Ne-92 and the Oak Creek Trl, the latter suggesting a conversion of former infrastructure into a modern recreational corridor. The presence of specialized sites like Butler County Reservoir 63-A illustrates the intensive water conservation efforts central to the area's agricultural identity.
