2021 Map of Taylor SE

About this map

The North Loup River valley dominates the southern reaches of this landscape, where the water flows parallel to the Taylor-Ord-Canal. This irrigation infrastructure is a defining characteristic of the region's agricultural history, managing the flow of water across the Loup County terrain. To the north, the waters of the Calamus Reservoir are visible, held back by modern engineering near Calamus Dam Rd. Between these two water systems, the land is marked by natural drainage features like Cedar Cr and the distinct topography of McCord Canyon and Leydell Canyon. The map reveals a strictly organized grid of rural roads, including Kent Rd and 825th Rd, which navigate the rises and falls of the Nebraska sandhills area.
