2017 Map of Oliver Reservoir

About this map

Oliver Reservoir serves as a central hydrological feature in this Kimball County landscape, catching the flow of Lodgepole Cr as it winds eastward. Near its banks, the settlement of Oliver and the waters of the Kimball Canal illustrate the essential relationship between water management and habitation in this high plains environment. The map details a strictly organized grid of rural corridors, including Forsling Rd and numerous county roads like Co RD 28, which define the property boundaries across various townships. In the northwestern corner, the Bushnell Cem stands as a quiet genealogical marker for the surrounding community. This modern survey reflects the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System, showing how the original township and range divisions continue to dictate the placement of local infrastructure and agricultural tracks in western Nebraska.
