2014 Map of Macy

About this map

Macy serves as a central hub on the reservation in this 2014 survey, where the Nebraska Indian Community Coll and the Omaha Tribal Cem are established near the rugged bluffs of the Missouri River. The landscape is defined by the sharp transition from the elevated, creek-carved loess hills to the wide alluvial plain of the river. Significant landmarks like Blackbird Hill and Black Bird Bend overlook the water, documenting a geography where the river's historic shifts created features such as Badger Lake and Lower Monona Bend. Further south, the town of Decatur sits at the edge of the Monona and Burt County line, near Hillcrest Cem. The map traces numerous local drainages including Wood Cr and both the North and South Blackbird Creek forks, illustrating the complex hydrology that feeds into the Missouri valley.
