1986 Map of Jensen Lake

About this map

The ranching landscape of the Nebraska Sandhills is defined here by wide, unnamed basins and family-held estates near the border of Grant and Arthur Counties. This mid-1980s provisional survey illustrates the sparse settlement pattern of the region, where life centers around water sources like Jensen Lake and the natural shelter of low-lying terrain. The map identifies several prominent homesteads, including the Sillasen Ranch and Stotts Ranch, alongside localized landmarks such as Voss Valley and Sillasen Valley. These labels provide essential data for genealogists and local historians tracking land ownership and family history in this cattle-rearing district. The topography is marked by a series of valleys, including Center Valley and Stinsman Valley, which dictate the placement of roads and structures across the rolling hills of this high-plains environment.
