2011 Map of Horsehead Ranch

About this map

Horsehead Ranch lends its name to this high plains landscape of western Nebraska, where the drainage patterns of Middle Creek, Greenwood Creek, and Rush Creek define the topography. The map illustrates a sparse, ranch-oriented settlement pattern typical of Cheyenne County, with an organized grid of section roads such as Road 58 and Road 82 providing access to remote homesteads and agricultural tracts. Local history and genealogy interest is anchored by the Sanders Cemetery, a solitary burial site located south of the central creek beds. The presence of the Mayer Landing Strip near the western edge underscores the vast distances of the region, where private aviation serves as a vital link for rural ranching operations.
