2017 Map of Scotia

About this map

Scotia sits along the North Loup River, serving as a central hub for the surrounding agricultural plains of Greeley County. The town's layout is defined by its connection to the river valley, with the Ord-North Loup Canal and nearby Scotia Junction illustrating the engineering required to manage water and transport in this part of Nebraska. To the northwest, Mount Hope Hope Cem provides a point of interest for genealogists tracing local families, while the terrain rises toward Happy Jack Peak, a notable landmark overlooking the river's winding course. The landscape is a network of section-line roads and creek drainages, including Mira Cr and Wallace Cr. To the southwest, the Davis Creek Reservoir marks a significant hydrological feature on the border with Howard County, while the Deadwood Trl in the southeast hints at the region's earlier transit history.
