About this map

Dora Lake and the surrounding sandhills terrain dominate this 1982 record of the Nebraska landscape along the Rock Co Holt Co line. The area is defined by its subterranean water resources, indicated by the numerous Flowing Well and Flowing Wells sites scattered across the township grid. These artesian features were vital for cattle ranching in a region where surface water can be scarce beyond the primary basins of Dora Lake and Frazier Lake. Local education is anchored by School No 205, a characteristic one-room schoolhouse identifier for this rural prairie district. The survey shows the delicate balance of high plains agriculture, where improved roads are few and the geography is shaped by shifting dunes and stabilizing prairie grasses.
