2017 Map of Twin Buttes

About this map

Blue Cr winds through the heart of this Garden County landscape, shaping a drainage system defined by natural springs and early 21st-century irrigation infrastructure. The eponymous Twin Buttes stand as prominent navigational landmarks in the western half of the quadrangle, rising above a network of section-line roads such as RD 193 and RD 70. This 2017 survey reveals the intersection of natural water sources like Rattlesnake Spring and Dugout Spring with an engineered landscape of water management. The southern reaches of the map show the convergence of the Blue Cr Canal, Hooper Canal, and Baisler Canal, illustrating the vital role of these waterways in supporting agricultural life on the high plains. The map provides a precise look at the township and range grid, including t17n r42w and t18n r43w, showing how property and infrastructure align with the legal land survey of Nebraska.
