Wheeler County, Nebraska

Wheeler County sits right in the middle of Nebraska. Bartlett is the county seat with less than 100 people. The whole county’s only got about 800 folks.
Ranching is the main gig here. The Cedar River runs through the county, which makes for some good fishing.
The landscape is a mix of rolling hills and grasslands. It’s beautiful, in that quiet Nebraska way. Not much excitement, but for some, that’s the appeal. It’s small town Nebraska at its finest.
