2017 Map of University Lake NE

About this map

S Br Snake Cr winds through the high plains of Sioux County, carving a subtle drainage pattern across a landscape defined by its section lines and grazing potential. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures the rural infrastructure of the Sheep Creek Precinct, where the rectangular survey system remains the primary organizing force. Isolated road segments like Morrill Rd and Watson Rd provide the only significant markers of human activity in this vast western Nebraska terrain. The presence of Henderson Rd near the southern boundary further underscores the sparse, farm-to-market transportation network that supports the region's agricultural economy. This map is particularly useful for understanding the exact placement of range and township lines, including t26n r54w and t26n r53w, which dictate land ownership and boundaries in this corner of the state.
