2017 Map of Peter Long Lake

About this map

The interdunal wetlands and lakes of the Nebraska Sandhills define this section of Sheridan County, where numerous small bodies of water are distributed across a complex landscape of ridges and depressions. Peter Long Lake stands out as a prominent water feature in the northwest, while others like Potmesil Lake and Nye Lake are scattered through the central portions of the survey. The geography reflects the high-plains ranching environment of the Cody Ranch area, where travel is facilitated by local tracks such as 251 Trl and 183rd Trl. This 2017 study illustrates the delicate hydrology of the region, including smaller groups of water like Hughes Lakes and southern features such as Simondson Lake and Dennis Lake. The map provides a detailed view of the township and range lines, including t26n r44w, which organize the remote, open country of northwestern Nebraska.
