About this map

Niobrara National Scenic River defines the southern portion of this landscape, where the Niobrara River carves through the terrain along the border of Brown and Keya Paha counties. The small settlement of Meadville sits just north of the water, connected by the Meadville Bridge which serves as a vital crossing point in this sparsely populated region. To the northeast, the town of Springview marks a primary center of activity, positioned on the higher ground away from the river breaks.

The drainage network is dense with named tributaries such as Plum Cr, Jewett Cr, and Rock Cr, which have etched deep draws into the prairie. The topography reveals the transition from the flat tablelands near Springview to the complex canyon systems of the river valley. Meadville Rd provides the primary north-south transit, linking these remote Nebraska communities across the rugged breaks of the Niobrara.
