About this map

Sandhill prairie and scattered wetlands define this section of the Nebraska landscape along the Rock County and Holt County line. The terrain is marked by the presence of family-operated ranching headquarters, including Stonehouse Ranch and Abbott Ranch, which represent the enduring pastoral economy of this region. These settlements are linked by a sparse network of section-line roads such as 850th Road and 849th Road, illustrating the low-density development typical of north-central Nebraska.

Hydrological features are central to the geography here, with several named bodies of water puncturing the undulating surface. Bruner Lake sits at the heart of the area, while Long Lake and Carson Lake provide critical water sources in an otherwise dry landscape. The map also documents the tiny settlement of Sybrant, offering a detailed view of the rural infrastructure and the Stonehouse Ranch NE location as they existed in the early twenty-first century.
