About this map

Nebraska National Forest land dominates this section of the Sandhills, where the undulating terrain of Thomas County is defined by complex contour patterns and sparse infrastructure. The southern portion of the quadrangle is bisected by the Dismal River, which provides a distinct hydrologic break in the landscape. High points like Signal Hill overlook a network of forest service and local routes, including Circle Rd and Nantick Rd, which navigate the depressions between stable dunes. This survey represents the modern management of this unique hand-planted forest environment, showing the intersection of conservation boundaries and the natural watercourses that sustain the region.
