1985 Map of Carr Lake

About this map

Cherry Valley dominates this landscape along the border of Grant Co and Hooker Co, where the High Plains terrain is marked by the distinct depressions and drainage patterns of the Nebraska Sandhills. This provisional survey captures the remote ranching infrastructure of the mid-1980s, centered on the water resources of Carr Lake. The settlement pattern is sparse, defined primarily by family-named operations such as Carr Ranch and the nearby R Carr Ranch. These sites, connected by a network of unimproved roads and four-wheel-drive trails, illustrate the specialized land use required in this arid, undulating environment where geography is dictated by the availability of surface water and the shelter of the valley floor.
