2011 Map of Jameson Lake West

About this map

Jameson Cemetery rests on a high bench overlooking the northern reaches of Jameson Lake, marking a point of quiet history in this corner of Douglas County. The landscape is defined by the dramatic coulee topography typical of the region, where McCartney Creek winds through the deep canyon floor before reaching the lake. Significant topographic depressions like Kester Draw and Dutch Henry Draw carve into the surrounding plateaus, creating a complex series of ridges and basins. The mapping of early 21st-century rural infrastructure follows a rigid section-line grid, represented by roads such as N Division Rd and Berg Rd NE. This network facilitates movement between the high rangeland and the water sources found at Stark Springs, reflecting the long-standing agricultural and ranching patterns that have shaped this terrain since its initial settlement.
