2014 Map of Springview SE

About this map

Spring Creek meanders through this section of Keya Paha County, defining a landscape of deep drainage basins and significant elevation changes. This 2014 survey captures the rural character of northern Nebraska, where the terrain is dominated by the intermittent flows of Wyman Creek, Tarbell Creek, and Beerline Creek. The primary transportation artery is Nebraska Highway 7, which cuts across the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. The map illustrates a region of sparse settlement, typical of the Sandhills transition zone, where the natural hydrology and topographical relief dictate the layout of roads and property boundaries. For those studying the environmental history of the Niobrara River watershed, the detailed contour lines provide a clear view of the complex creek systems that feed the larger river valley to the south.
