2014 Map of Long Lake SE

About this map

Piercy Place and Hartgraves Place anchor this 2014 topographic survey of Cherry County, Nebraska, representing the distinct homestead and ranching pattern of the Sandhills. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Goose Cr in the south, which cuts through a complex network of dunes and depressions. The presence of these named ranch sites suggests a continuation of the region's historical land use, where large-scale operations are often identified by their founding families. While the area is sparsely populated, the map tracks several local roads and the topographical nuances of the terrain that surround these specific locales, offering a detailed look at the rural spatial arrangement of the Nebraska interior during the early twenty-first century.
