2011 Map of Oshkosh

About this map

Oshkosh and the surrounding high plains of Garden County are defined by an intricate system of water management along the North Platte River. This 2011 survey illustrates the complex hydraulic network essential to the region, featuring the North River Canal, Oshkosh Canal, and Midland Overland Canal that parallel the river's course. North of the primary settlement, the landscape transitions into the Antelope Valley, where Lost Creek winds through a grid of rural roads. Local history and genealogy are anchored by Saint Elizabeths Cemetery and the Oshkosh Cemetery, while the presence of the Garden County Airport and Dougs Texaco Campground highlights the area's role as a regional transit and service hub. Further landmarks such as Dorman Dam and the Oshkosh Post Office provide fixed points of reference for researchers studying the modern infrastructure of this Western Nebraska community.
