2021 Map of Mud Springs

About this map

Mud Springs anchors the north-central portion of this high plains landscape, situated within a topography defined by complex drainages and the meeting of two Nebraska counties. The transition from Morrill County and Cheyenne County is marked by a grid of rural section roads, including Rd 101 and Rd 60, which navigate the various seasonal watercourses. The drainage patterns of Greenwood Creek and the southern reaches of Deep Holes Creek carve through the terrain, illustrating the importance of water sources in this dry agricultural and ranching region. This 2021 update from the U.S. Geological Survey provides a clear view of the modern road network superimposed over the traditional Public Land Survey System township and range lines.
