About this map

Leach Lake and the complex drainage systems of the Nebraska Sandhills dominate this mid-1980s topographic survey. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Brush Creek, Cedar Creek, and the dual branches of North Fork Plum Creek and South Fork Plum Creek. A notable man-made addition to the natural hydrology is the Ainsworth Private Canal, which cuts across the undulating terrain in the northern half of the quadrangle. Stretching along the boundary of Cherry Co and Brown Co, the map reveals a sparsely settled region primarily focused on water management and resource extraction, as evidenced by a Gravel Pit and numerous small water bodies like Dry Creek and Evergreen Creek. This document serves as a clear record of the intersection between natural waterways and private irrigation infrastructure in the high plains.
