1990 Map of North Valley

About this map

North Valley and the Snake River define this stretch of Cherry County, Nebraska, where the landscape is organized around scattered ranching operations and natural drainages. This late-twentieth-century landscape is characterized by its isolation and the naming of specific properties, such as the Sasse-Vinton Ranch and multiple holdings belonging to the Kime family, including the Steve Kime Ranch and Archie Kime Ranch. The presence of the North Valley Sch suggests a focal point for the rural community inhabiting this expansive terrain. To the south, the map transitions into the Tennessee Valley, with Willow Creek and Clifford Creek providing vital water sources for the cattle-driven economy of the Sandhills region.
