2017 Map of Milburn

About this map

The Middle Loup River carves a broad valley through the center of this Custer County landscape, defining the character of the ranching country surrounding Milburn. The terrain is marked by significant topographical breaks such as Cedar Canyon, River Canyon, and Ash Canyon, which intersect the upland plateaus. These plateaus are connected by a network of rural routes including Columbia Table Rd and Sargent Rd. Further south, the settlement of Gates sits near the banks of Victoria Cr. This area maintains a traditional rural infrastructure where movement is dictated by the watercourses and the gaps between canyons. The local history of the region is anchored by sites like the Gates Cem, situated just north of the Victoria Springs Rd junction.
