2014 Map of Mumper

About this map

Mumper serves as the primary focal point in this portion of the Nebraska Sandhills, a landscape defined by an extensive network of small lakes and seasonal ponds. The topography is characterized by rolling stabilized dunes, with distinctive elevations like Old Lady Beam Hill rising above the surrounding basin. Numerous water bodies, including Ashburger Lake, School Section Lake, and the cluster of Ramsay Lakes, dominate the terrain, illustrating the region's high water table and importance as a wetland habitat. Small local corridors such as Road 181 and Road 110 provide the only significant access through the hills, connecting isolated points like the Nature Trail near Gimlet Lake. The prevalence of named water features like Goose Lake and Rush Lake suggests a geography deeply tied to migratory patterns and local ranching history.
