1985 Map of Philbrick Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

Calamus River and its South Fork meander through this portion of Brown County, defining a landscape dominated by the Nebraska Sandhills' characteristic wet meadows and glacial basins. The 1985 survey captures a complex hydrological network where large bodies of water like Philbrick Lake and Moon Lake sit adjacent to extensive wetlands, including Moon Lake Marsh and Clapper Marsh. These basins have long served as vital habitat, noted here by the presence of the Long Lake State Wildlife Management Area and the South Twin Lake State Wildlife Management Area. The map reveals a sparsely populated terrain where cattle ranching and conservation are the primary footprints on the land, with isolated water bodies such as Rat Lake, Crystal Lake, and Enders Lake punctuating the grassy dunes.
