About this map

The N Br Elkhorn River and S Fork Elkhorn River define the hydrology of this Rock County landscape, which transitions between riverine drainage and the scattered wetlands typical of the Nebraska Sandhills. The terrain is structured by a rectilinear grid of section roads, including 876th Rd and 881st Rd, though the natural topography often interrupts this geometry with small, unnamed ponds and seasonal basins. A primary lateral thoroughfare, the Cowboy Trl, cuts across the northern half of the region, following a former rail alignment that once connected small agricultural hubs. To the south, Adams Lake sits as a prominent water feature amidst the township lines of t30n r19w and t29n r18w. This 2021 survey documents the modern ranching infrastructure, from Buffalo Rd to Coyote Rd, illustrating how land use remains tied to the ancient paths of the Elkhorn forks.
