2011 Map of Naper

About this map

Naper sits at the northern edge of Boyd County, serving as a primary hub of settlement in this prairie landscape defined by the winding paths of the Keya Paha River and the Niobrara River to the south. Local heritage is centered around the village core, where the Naper Post Office and the Knoll Crest Cemetery anchor the community's geographic history. The landscape is marked by a series of water management features, including the Stoltenberg Reservoir and Keller Reservoir, which illustrate the necessity of irrigation and livestock watering in this rural environment. To the southeast, the White Horse Ranch represents the agricultural heritage of the region. The map also traces the drainage of Ponca Creek in the north, providing a clear picture of the hydrological network that dictates the placement of roads like State Spur 8a and various local routes.
