2017 Map of South of Gordon

About this map

The Niobrara River winds through this section of Sheridan County, carving a valley defined by prominent drainages like Sand Draw. The landscape is a network of rural section lines and access trails, reflecting the enduring ranching and agricultural character of the Nebraska Panhandle. To the south, the river is spanned by the Mills Bridge and the Eddie Hill Bridge, providing essential crossings in a region where the water and topography dictate the flow of travel. Further north, the Mount Hope Cem sits along Cemetery Rd, serving as a quiet focal point for the surrounding homesteads. Water management is evidenced by the Leach Reservoir, while a grid of numbered routes such as Pole Creek Rd and 600 Rd connect the isolated ranch buildings across the plains.
