2014 Map of Purdum NW

About this map

Cascade sits near the eastern edge of this Cherry County landscape, a small settlement point along the meandering North Loup River. The terrain is defined by the unique hydrology of the Nebraska Sandhills, where the river valley is flanked by an intricate network of wetlands and small ponds. To the south, Calf Cr winds through the meadows, while W N Loup Rd provides the primary overland connection through this cattle-ranching region. The map reveals the sparse human footprint in this part of the state, where wide distances separate the few named features and the natural drainage patterns of the river dominate the local geography.
