2011 Map of Crescent Lake SE

About this map

Blue Creek winds through the heart of this Garden County landscape, cutting a meandering path southeast toward the Platte River system. This 2011 survey captures a sparsely populated portion of the Nebraska Sandhills where the topography transitions from the high ground of Dogtown Flats into the broad depression of Antelope Valley. The layout of the land is defined by a rigid grid of rural routes, including Road 82 and Road 74, which serve the isolated agricultural operations of the region. A significant genealogical and local landmark, the Kingery Cemetery, sits near the eastern edge of the quadrangle, while the Richstein Ranch anchors the northern reaches of the creek. This map preserves the contemporary footprint of ranching life and land management in a region where the natural drainage of the creek remains the primary geographic feature.
