2011 Map of Stapleton SE

About this map

Myrtle Cemetery sits at a high point in the northern section of this Lincoln County landscape, serving as a silent anchor for the surrounding agricultural community. The terrain is organized by a geometric grid of table roads and valley routes, such as E Garfield Table Rd and E Kilmar Valley Rd, which facilitate movement between high plateaus and lower drainage basins. This 2011 survey reveals a territory defined by ranching operations, specifically highlighting the Nowak Ranch to the east and the Stewart Ranch in the south. The road network, including the descriptive N Cattle Growers Rd, underscores the primary economic engine of the region. The spatial arrangement of these ranching outposts and roads reflects a persistent pattern of rural land use in the Nebraska Sandhills periphery, where large-scale operations are managed through a sparse but essential infrastructure of named section lines and family-linked landmarks.
