2011 Map of Riverview

About this map

The Niobrara River carves a significant east-west path through this part of Keya Paha County, defining the local geography with its braided channels and features like Kindall Island. Near the northern banks, the small settlement of Riverview sits at the junction of several drainage systems, including Wyman Creek and Wentworth Creek. The surrounding landscape is characterized by a high density of north-flowing tributaries that feed into the Niobrara, such as Sand Creek, Elk Creek, and Coon Creek. This drainage pattern reveals the dissected nature of the plains in northern Nebraska, where the river serves as the primary topographical anchor for the sparse road networks and agricultural land divisions shown in this 2011 survey.
