About this map

Samuel R Mc Kelvie National Forest dominates this mid-1980s landscape in Cherry County, Nebraska, showing a vast area of protected sandhills terrain. The map centers on the winding course of Steer Creek, which flows eastward through the forest toward the Merritt Reservoir. This 1985 provisional edition captures the transition from the open valley of Powderhorn Valley into the managed recreation and wildlife areas of the eastern quadrangle. Local landmarks such as the Steer Creek Camp suggest the area's use for outdoor recreation, while the Merritt Reservoir State Wildlife Management Area underscores the importance of water management and habitat preservation in this specific corner of the Nebraska panhandle.
