About this map

Ainsworth Canal cuts across the northern section of this landscape in eastern Cherry County, a critical piece of water infrastructure that defines the local agricultural potential. This 2014 survey documents a sparse, creek-fed terrain where the hydrology is dominated by the N Fork Plum Cr and the S Fork Plum Cr. The drainage patterns of Rush Cr and Dry Cr illustrate the subtle topography of the Nebraska Sandhills region. Primarily composed of open rangeland and private holdings, the area maintains a strictly rural character with few structural developments, centered instead on the management of its water resources for ranching and irrigation.
