2014 Map of Wausa

About this map

Wausa occupies the northern edge of this survey, where the grid of city streets like S Lincoln St and E Norris St gives way to the broad agricultural landscape of the Nebraska plains. The terrain is defined by the winding course of the N Fork Elkhorn River and its tributary, the E Br N Fork Elkhorn River, which drain south through a network of section-line roads. This map documents the boundary between Knox Co and Pierce Co, highlighting how the political borders of the region align with the 870 Rd corridor. The landscape is characterized by a high density of rural throughways such as 548 Ave and 869th Rd, illustrating the deeply established township-and-range system that organizes the farming properties of north-central Nebraska.
