About this map

The vast cattle country of the Nebraska Sandhills is documented here just after World War II, revealing a landscape defined by isolated ranching operations and natural alkaline basins. Large family holdings like the Diamond Bar Ranch and Castle Ranch are centers of activity, often situated near vital water sources such as Mother Lake and Castle Lake. The area's commitment to education in this sparsely populated region is evident through the presence of rural schoolhouses, including the Ferguson-Becker Sch and the central Consolidated Sch.
