About this map

The Niobrara River winds through the northern portion of this Sheridan County landscape, defining a terrain shaped by water management and ranching operations. Significant local infrastructure is centered around the Orr Ranch and its associated Orr Ranch Airport, illustrating the scale of aviation and agriculture in this part of the Nebraska Sandhills. For those researching family history or local land use, the Neely Flat Cem provides a specific point of genealogical interest located south of the river. The map also documents a network of rural routes such as 400TH Ln and 370th Rd, alongside irrigation features like the Sturgeon Lateral and Sturgeon Drain, which highlight the intensive management of water resources required for the region's productivity.
