2011 Map of Nibbe

About this map

The Yellowstone River corridor in Yellowstone County defines this landscape, where the northern plains meet an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure. Small settlements like Nibbe, Mann, and Newton are positioned along the rail and road corridors that follow the river valley, reflecting the area's agricultural development. The engineering of the land is evident in the extensive canal systems, including the Huntley Main Canal and Highline Canal, which draw water into the drier surrounding terrain. To the east, the historic landmark of Pompeys Pillar stands near the river, while the Anita Reservoir and Anita Dam serve the southern reaches of the quadrangle. A system of section-line roads, many named for their grid coordinates like S 27th Rd, provides a clear view of the rural settlement patterns established a century prior. The presence of Gravel Pit Coulee and localized Gravel Pit operations highlight the extraction of materials from the alluvial landscape.
