1982 Map of Hofeld Lake

About this map

Hofeld Lake serves as a prominent landmark in this sparsely settled region of the Nebraska Sandhills, providing a rare surface water source amidst a landscape of undulating dunes. The terrain is characterized by a high density of small depressions and wetlands, with Long Creek threading through the northern reaches of the quadrangle. Human impact on the land is represented by scattered infrastructure, including a Radio Tower and several remote Well sites, which were vital for the cattle ranching operations that defined the area in the early 1980s. A small Claypit in the southern portion of the map suggests localized mineral extraction. The absence of established towns or major highways underscores the remote, pastoral character of Brown County at the time this survey was edited by the Geological Survey.
