About this map

O'Connor anchors the southern portion of this landscape in Greeley County, situated near the headwaters of Spring Creek. The terrain is defined by a dense network of intermittent waterways that drain the agricultural uplands, including Troy Creek in the northeast and Freeman Creek in the northwest. Much of the central portion of the sheet is traversed by the winding course of East Branch Spring Creek, which flows south towards the main channel. The map illustrates a highly organized section-line road network typical of the Great Plains, reflecting the established land divisions and rural homestead patterns of the early twenty-first century. This survey provides a precise view of the hydrology and rural infrastructure that sustains this portion of Nebraska's farming country.
