2011 Map of Nickwall

About this map

The Missouri River dominates this landscape, winding through a series of bends and creating the prominent Chelsea Island in the northern reach. This survey highlights the rural community of Nickwall, centered near Pleasant View Cemetery and the intersection of Nickwall Rd. The geography is defined by a network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including Nickwall Creek and Remley Creek, which drain toward the river systems. Several local water management features are evident, such as W Miller Dam and Shefelbine Dam, indicating the importance of water storage for ranching or agriculture in this arid region. To the south, the Redwater River snakes across the plains, joined by smaller tributaries like Chelsea Creek and Tule Creek in the northwest, illustrating the complex drainage patterns of the Missouri River basin.
