About this map

Medicine Creek winds through a landscape defined by its depressions and dunes in the heart of the Nebraska Sandhills. This 1985 provisional survey captures a region where life centers on isolated ranching outposts such as Broken Box Ranch and Rocking J Ranch, situated among a network of natural basins. The hydrology of the area is particularly prominent, featuring a cluster of water bodies including Medicine Lake, Willow Lake, and Moon Lake, which suggest the high water table characteristic of this unique prairie ecosystem.
