2017 Map of Gypsy Valley

About this map

Snake River meanders across this landscape of Nebraska's Sandhills region, carving a defined channel through the varied terrain of Gypsy Valley and Tennessee Valley. This 2017 topographic record documents a largely open and natural expanse within Cherry County, where the topography is defined by complex sand dune formations and occasional wetland depressions. Settlement is sparse, with transportation limited to routes like Fawn Lake Rd in the southern portion of the quadrangle. Small, isolated bodies of water such as Milligan Lake dot the lowlands between ridges, reflecting the hydrologic character of this part of the state. The map preserves the exact township and range divisions, including t30n r40w and t31n r39w, which continue to define property and administrative boundaries in this rural section of the Great Plains.
