About this map

School Number 7 stands as a primary landmark in this rural section of Box Butte County, where the landscape is defined by a grid of agricultural section lines and an intricate drainage system. The terrain is marked by the winding paths of Point of Rocks Cr and its northern and southern branches, alongside Berea Cr in the northeast. These watercourses have carved subtle variations into the plains, creating a network of draws and intermittent streams typical of the Nebraska panhandle.

Water management is evident through the presence of Frost Reservoir and Luce Reservoir, which support the region's farming and ranching operations. The road network, including Hayes Rd, Jefferson Rd, and Keith Rd, follows the strict geometry of the Public Land Survey System, which is clearly delineated by the township and range boundaries of t26n r50w and t26n r49w. This map captures a snapshot of the high plains' organized rural character and the essential relationship between local infrastructure and the natural watershed.
