1985 Map of Goose Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1994

About this map

The Valentine National Wildlife Refuge dominates this section of the Nebraska Sandhills, preserving a landscape characterized by its unique interdunal wetlands and lakes. The water-rich environment is evidenced by dozens of named bodies such as Dads Lake, Moon Lake, and Bull Lake, alongside specialized conservation zones like the Rat and Beaver Lake State Wildlife Management Area. Human settlement is concentrated in small outposts including Purdum, Elsmere, and Koshopah, while the southern reaches show the influence of the Middle Loup River and the Burlington Northern railroad near Seneca. The intricate drainage patterns of Goose Creek and North Loup River cut through valleys like Calf Creek Valley and Wamaduze Valley, illustrating the hydrological complexity of the region before late-20th-century shifts in land use.
