About this map

Nonpareil sits in the northern reaches of this High Plains landscape, where the High Plains terrain is etched by seasonal watercourses and a rigid grid of country roads. The hydrology is defined by the ephemeral drainage of Hemingford Cr and the complex branching of the Point of Rocks system, including the N Br Point of Rocks Cr and Point of Rocks Cr. These drainages represent the primary topographical relief in a region dominated by agricultural sectioning.

Land use is reflected in the naming of local thoroughfares such as Dakota Rd, Filmore Rd, and Franklin Rd, which partition the sections. Phillips Reservoir provides a notable point of water storage amidst the dry draws. The map illustrates the persistent structure of the Public Land Survey System, with township boundaries like t27n r51w and t28n r50w clearly demarcating the rural property divisions of Box Butte County.
