About this map

The Platte River corridor dominates this central Nebraska landscape, defining the boundaries where Colfax, Butler, Dodge, and Saunders counties meet. This survey reveals a complex riverine environment of braided channels and named landmasses including Murphy Island, Sheep Island, and School Island. To the north, the settlement of Rogers sits near the Hughes Payzant Ditch and Shell Creek, while the village of Linwood anchors the southern bluffs near Indian Hill.

Local history is well-preserved through several established burial grounds, including Dawson Cem, Saint Marys Cem, and Linwood Hill Cem. The map illustrates the agricultural drainage network essential to the region, featuring the Byrne Ditch, O'Hare Ditch, and N Bend Cutoff Ditch. This document provides a clear view of the rural road grid and trails like The Valley Trl as they negotiate the terrain between the river valley and the rising bluffs.
