About this map

Agricultural lands and rural infrastructure define this portion of Lincoln County, where a grid of section lines and gravel roads facilitates movement across the High Plains. One of the more distinct markers of local community history is District 31 School Rd, which preserves the memory of the area's rural educational past. The landscape is primarily organized by long-standing thoroughfares such as S Old Highway 83 and E Lone Star Rd, reflecting the ranching and farming heritage that dominates this region of Nebraska.

Secondary routes like Branting Rd and Miriam Rd provide access to the interior sections, where ephemeral drainage patterns crisscross the terrain. The presence of E Kaneb Rd and Section Rd illustrates the rigid geometric surveying that has shaped Nebraska's rural development since settlement began. This 2011 survey from the U.S. Geological Survey offers a clear record of the modern transportation network supporting these remote Nebraska communities.
