2014 Map of Morrill

About this map

The North Platte River defines the central geography of this Western Nebraska landscape, where an intricate network of irrigation projects sustains the high plains. The settlement of Morrill serves as a hub alongside the N Railway St and Us-26, supported by a complex system of waterways including the Tri-State Canal, Ramshorn Canal, and the Mitchell and Gering Canal. To the north, the terrain levels out into the Dutch Flats, while the south is marked by the prominence of Bald Peak. This survey provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure near the Wyoming border, documenting local landmarks like Forest Lawn Cem and Caldwell Cem. Smaller communities such as South Morrill, Joyce, and Hartman are situated along the rail and road corridors, illustrating the persistent connection between transportation and the region's managed water resources like the Lippencott Reservoir.
