2011 Map of Oshkosh SW

About this map

Devils Washbasin dominates the northeastern corner of this high plains landscape, a distinct topographical feature amidst the expansive grid of the Nebraska panhandle. This 2011 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey documents a region defined by its agricultural layout, where a network of section roads like Road 165 and Road 173 divides the terrain into large, rectangular tracts. The presence of W Canyon Rd suggests the beginning of the more broken, dramatic terrain found as the land dips toward the North Platte River valley just beyond these borders. This map is a record of modern land management and rural infrastructure, providing a detailed baseline of the road system and natural depressions that characterize this portion of Garden County.
