Deuel County, Nebraska

Deuel County is perched way out in western Nebraska, right on the Colorado border. It’s small but scrappy. Chappell is the county seat in the western region.
The landscape here is classic High Plains: wide-open spaces as far as the eye can see. Farming is the main gig, with wheat being a major crop. But there’s also some cattle ranching going on.
The county boasts some interesting history, including ties to the Pony Express. It’s not for everyone, but for those who love big skies and quiet nights, Deuel County’s charm is undeniable.
