About this map

Ericson serves as the central hub of this Wheeler County landscape, defined by the winding course of the Cedar River and its accompanying wetlands. This 2011 survey illustrates the local importance of water management and recreation, anchored by Ericson Lake at the southeastern edge of the village. The map detail highlights the specific infrastructure of the community, from the Ericson Post Office to the localized road network featuring The Blvd and Chesapeake near the lakeshore.

Rural aviation and ranching interests are evident at the X1 Ranch Airport, situated west of the main settlement near the junction of Dry Cedar Creek and the river. Further north, the terrain is dotted with distinctive bodies of water such as Psotas Lake and Kruml Lake, indicating the varied hydrology of the Sandhills region. The map provides a clear record of land use and property access in this part of Nebraska during the early 21st century.
