Deuel Bend Historic River Road
Traveling through Nebraska often takes one through the vast Great Plains region that is marked by a history of pioneers, Native American tribes, and explorers. One of the lesser-known historical stretches of road during the early days of settlement is the Deuel Bend Historic River Road, located in western Nebraska, United States. The Deuel Bend Historic River Road is an approximately 6-mile stretch along the North Platte River in Deuel County, within the South Platte River valley.
The Deuel Bend Historic River Road spans a period of historical significance as the southern bank of the North Platte River, comprising numerous archaeological, historical, and paleontological sites dating back thousands of years. Notably, the location that the road traverses was deemed significant by the United States Geological Survey due to sand deposits discovered in 1854 that could provide water filtration. By the early 20th century, it would evolve into a site for more than just historical travel routes, with oil and mineral discoveries drawing numerous oil explorers to the area. Visitors would be able to travel to Lakeside, at the North Platte River bend in Deuel County to explore the scenic Overlook, on the west bank of the North Platte River, at Oregon National Historic Trail, where a plaque would describe an ancient discovery of steam deposits identified as far back as 1854.
At various points along the Deuel Bend Historic River Road, signs indicate a juxtaposition between historical settlers and Native American tribe trails that led thousands of years of inhabitants through high and dry areas towards North Platte River through thousands of archaeological research, leading to sites of early settlements along the roads of their forefathers. That particular region of this former world held ancient, significant historical, paleontological settlements spanning over five thousand years over Deuel County.
The Deuel Bend road is also marked by past geological discoveries that continue to prove the overall significance of the North Platte River crossing and its bend as a location marked with an abundance of paleontological finds; here lies early archaeological places identified while mining near the Cross-roads that is said to date back thousands of years across early discovery of various mammals.
Deuel Bend can even extend that travel into what eventually marks the exact northern site limit of an impressive site so vast with an amazing story, specifically from there through a much popular present day museum present today by Crossroads, since this unique early area, is linked through a historical museum which lies ahead in other directions, even down the bend through time. The Deuel Bend Historic River Road area points were specifically chosen both on their place names found on map from ancient fossil records found by Native American ancestors which also set forward the actual key paths behind the thousands of actual early human, fossils or human occupation settlement since that era.
During travel and during site visitation today, Deuel County has put forth an immense growth to show historical paths that made a rise over the years, a more diverse museum that not only takes one to significant North Platte sites at bend south but also offers more detail by extending some research trips that allow present-day guests the ability to also include historic stops known only previously at earlier eras in an historical time cross referenced and studied historically from many historical locations that include multiple thousands of year history of human settlements which the historical bends of human trials show through the amazing bends of this specific trial on later local visits.
