About this map

E Muddy Cr winds through the southwestern corner of this landscape, where the High Plains terrain is carved by a series of distinct drainage features. The area is defined by its dramatic topographic relief, including Sand Canyon in the north and the deep indentations of Horse Canyon, Milken Canyon, and Hay Canyon. This 2017 survey reveals the strictly organized section-line road grid that overlays the natural drainage patterns, with Chase Co Line Rd and Co Line Rd marking the political boundaries of Chase, Hayes, Dundy, and Hitchcock counties. The map serves as a detailed record of the intersection of these four Nebraska counties, illustrating how modern agriculture and rural infrastructure, represented by routes like 8th Ave, adapt to the broken canyon country that disrupts the otherwise flat agricultural plateau.
