2011 Map of Hire
USGS Topo · Published 2011About this map
The settlement of Hire anchors this portion of Cherry County, Nebraska, where the landscape is defined by the parallel courses of the North Branch Middle Loup River and the Middle Branch Middle Loup River. This 2011 survey reveals a sparsely populated ranching environment where large family operations like the L Phipps Ranch and Roesch Ranch represent the primary human imprint on the terrain. Connectivity is maintained through a network of local roads, including the named Phipps Rd in the north. Water features such as Fender Lake and Calf Creek provide essential resources in this part of the Sandhills region, where the hydrology of the Loup River system dictates the layout of the land and its agricultural utility.
