The North Platte River carves a winding path through this portion of Converse County, defining a landscape shaped by both water and ranching. Near the settlement of Orpha, the terrain transitions from the river valley into the high ridges of Table Mtn. This 2017 survey reveals the importance of water management in the high plains, as evidenced by the distribution of irrigation and storage features like Nichols Reservoir Number 2 and East Side Reservoir Number 2 along the course of La Prele Cr.
