1986 Map of Curry Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Curry Lake and a complex system of interconnected sandhills valleys characterize this mid-1980s landscape on the Garden Co Grant Co line. The terrain is defined by a dense network of named depressions, including Double Supply Valley, French Valley, and Leech Valley, which illustrate the unique hydrology of the Nebraska Sandhills where water often collects in these low-lying pockets. Settlement is sparse and primarily tied to large ranching operations. Significant landmarks for local history and genealogy include the Open Box Arrow Ranch in the northwest, Farm Valley Ranch to the east, and the Sutton N-Arrow Ranch located near the center of the quadrangle. These ranch names reflect long-standing cattle brands and landholdings in the region, while the presence of a Flowing Well indicates the essential role of groundwater in sustaining livestock in this semi-arid environment.
