2014 Map of Ogallala

About this map

Ogallala serves as the focal point of this Keith County landscape, situated at a geographic transition between the North Platte River to the north and the South Platte River to the south. The town's grid expands toward the river valley, while the famous Boot Hill Cem stands as a grounded landmark of the region's western heritage. North of the town, the terrain shifts into a series of ridges and draws leading toward the massive expanse of Mcconaughy Lake and the smaller Ogallala Lake. This map captures the intricate water management system of the Platte River valley, including the Sutherland Canal and Cure Cr Reservoir 1-A. Significant transportation corridors like Us-30 and Ne-61 intersect here, facilitating movement through the Platte valley and across the dissected uplands that separate the two river branches.
