2011 Map of Tryon NE

About this map

The pastoral economy of Hooker County is documented through a series of family-owned ranching operations that define this rural Nebraska landscape. Early twenty-first-century survey data highlights the importance of individual ranch sites such as V Paxton Ranch, Garska Ranch, and the Miller Ranch. These holdings are connected by a sparse network of local roads including Cemetery Rd and the Ringgold Rd. The map illustrates a land-use pattern where large acreage and scattered homesteads predominate, reflecting the region's enduring cattle-raising traditions. Local family names are etched into the geography at the P Munson Ranch, James Ranch, and the Black Ranch, providing valuable points of reference for genealogists and researchers of the Sandhills region.
