1950 Map of Powderhorn Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Nebraska National Forest dominates the northern landscape of this Cherry County interior, surveyed shortly after the mid-century. This mid-continent ranching territory is defined by its seasonal hydrology and expansive valleys, where established operations like Diamond Bar Ranch and Ravencroft Ranch occupy the lowlands between sandhills. The drainage patterns of Snake River and Boardman Creek dictate the placement of local infrastructure, including Webster Bridge and Shelbourn Bridge, which served as vital crossing points for isolated ranching families.
