2021 Map of Bull Lake

About this map

Wamaduze Valley carves a distinctive path through the northern reaches of Cherry County, defining the drainage patterns of this sparsely populated portion of the Nebraska Sandhills. The landscape is dominated by isolated water bodies including Bull Lake, Lone Tree Lake, and Stub Lake, which serve as critical landmarks in a region characterized by shifting dunes and internal drainage. The presence of Wamaduze Cr provides a central hydrologic artery, while the local road network is limited primarily to Brownlee Rd, reflecting the low-density ranching environment of the area. This survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates how the natural topography dictates the few corridors of movement, with the terrain's undulating forms and scattered wetlands being the primary features for navigation and land use.
