About this map

Boston Valley anchors the northern reaches of this landscape along the border of Greeley and Howard counties. The terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the south-flowing Moffet Cr and Munson Cr, which carve through the Nebraska hills. A notable historical waypoint, the Deadwood Trl, cuts across the southwestern corner, reflecting the region's legacy of early transit and westward movement.

Modern infrastructure follows a systematic grid of section roads like Salem Rd and Greeley Rd, which intersect with state routes Ne-22 and Us-281. This map captures the rural agricultural character of the area, where land use is dictated by the drainage of Fish Cr and Cedar Cr. The surveyor's data from the U.S. Geological Survey highlights the intricate relief of the Loess Hills, showing how early trails and later roadways adapted to the local topography.
