1981 Map of Goose Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1982

About this map

Goose Lake State Wildlife Area centers this landscape in north-central Nebraska, straddling the boundary between Holt and Wheeler Counties. The map reveals a remote prairie environment defined by alkaline lakes and seasonal wetlands typical of the Sandhills transition. Water features like Goose Lake and Detters Lake are the primary landmarks, supported by a network of drainage including Cache Creek and Clearwater Creek. Small-scale ranching and rural settlement are evidenced by the presence of Hoerle and the Corning Sch, while several instances of a Flowing Well point to the reliance on the underlying Ogallala Aquifer. The infrastructure is minimal, consisting of isolated gravel roads, cattle fences, and a few scattered improvements like a Campground and Boat Ramp providing access to the state-managed wildlife lands.
