2017 Map of Rushville SE

About this map

The Niobrara River winds through this section of Sheridan County, carving a distinct valley across the landscape. This 2017 survey documents the rural character of the region, where watercourses like Rush Cr and Deer Cr define the drainage patterns and historical land use. Near the northern boundary, the Furman Bridge provides a documented crossing over the river, a critical point of infrastructure in this sparsely settled area. The map illustrates a network of backcountry routes, including 289 Trl and 457th Trl, which provide access through the variable terrain of the sandhills and river breaks. This modern record of the High Plains preserves the relationship between seasonal water sources and the local trail system within the Public Land Survey System townships of T31N and T30N.
