About this map

Hoffland serves as a central point in this western Nebraska landscape, where the high plains meet a complex network of alkali lakes and seasonal wetlands. The topography is defined by the unique hydrology of the Sandhills, featuring a high concentration of enclosed basins such as Jesse Lake, O'Neil Lake, and the multi-lobed Fenner Lakes. These bodies of water are critical landmarks in an area dominated by cattle ranching and scattered transport routes like Perkins Rd.

Drainage is subtle but present through Snake Cr, which meanders through the southern portion of the quadrangle. The map documents the meeting of several jurisdictions, showing the intersection of Box Butte, Sheridan, Morrill, and Garden counties. This 2014 survey captures the modern alignment of rural corridors such as 437th Trl and 433rd Trl, which provide access to remote lakeside settlements like Clough Lake and Reeves Lake.
