2014 Map of Sand Canyon West

About this map

Steffensen Reservoir sits as a central water feature in this portion of Dawes County, marking a landscape defined by its drainage systems and rural transit routes. The geography is carved by the intermittent flows of Sand Canyon, Pepper Creek, and Pebble Creek, which dictate the local topography. This 2014 survey captures the connectivity of the high plains through a network of named county roads, including Old Dunlap Rd and Autogate Rd, which link isolated homesteads and ranching tracts. The presence of Us-385 running north-south provides the primary artery through this rugged terrain, while local names like Prairie Home Rd and Marchant Rd reflect the enduring footprint of agricultural settlement in the Nebraska panhandle.
