1987 Map of Bull Lake

About this map

Wamaduze Valley carves a distinct path through the Nebraska Sandhills, defining the remote character of this ranching landscape in the late 1980s. The map reveals a sparsely settled region where survival and industry center on scarce water resources, illustrated by the presence of a Water Well and Flowing Well scattered across the undulating terrain. Large-scale agricultural operations are represented by the McLeod Ranch and S Hanna Ranch, which serve as the primary human landmarks in an otherwise open expanse of dunes and depressions.
