2017 Map of Kennedy

About this map

Kennedy is situated within the expansive Sandhills of Cherry County, Nebraska, where the landscape is defined by its characteristic hydrology and sparse settlement patterns. This area is anchored by the presence of Merritt Reservoir in the northwest, a significant water body created by damming the Gordon Cr, which snakes through the central and southern portions of the terrain. The map illustrates a region where life centers on water and livestock ranching, with Lone Tree Lake providing another vital landmark in the southern reaches. The intricate network of wetlands and seasonal ponds shown throughout the townships, including t30n r30w and t29n r30w, reveals the complex ecosystem of the Nebraska backcountry in the early 21st century.
