2021 Map of Bornemann Lake

About this map

Bornemann Lake lies at the heart of this landscape in Cherry County, Nebraska, a region defined by the distinct topography of the Sandhills. The area exhibits a high density of small, unnamed wetlands and ponds scattered throughout the terrain, reflecting the complex hydrology of the High Plains. Lavaca Flats occupies the northern portion of the quadrangle, illustrating the subtle variations in elevation that characterize the local basin-and-range style morphology. This 2021 survey documents the land divisions of t32n r39w, t32n r38w, t31n r39w, and t31n r38w, providing a clear record of the Public Land Survey System in an area primarily shaped by natural water features and cattle ranching history. The absence of primary roads or established towns underscores the isolation of this corner of the Nebraska interior.
