2017 Map of Paramount Valley

About this map

Paramount Valley occupies a distinct landscape defined by the sandy basins and ridge formations characteristic of the Nebraska Sandhills. This 2017 survey details the remote cattle country spanning the boundary of Brown and Rock counties, where the local economy and geography center on scattered water resources. The presence of Hornburger Lake and the drainage of Skull Creek in the eastern section indicate the vital importance of surface water in this arid ranching environment. Large-scale section mapping reveals a sparse infrastructure, with Eagle Point Ave serving as a primary north-south artery through the rolling terrain. The map's layout of townships and ranges, including t26n r21w and t25n r20w, illustrates the enduring structure of the Public Land Survey System in defining property and management lines in this open range land.
