About this map

The western edge of the Crescent Lake National Wildlife Refuge anchors this landscape of the Nebraska Sandhills, where a pattern of isolated ranches and small country schools defined mid-century rural life. This 1949 survey documents a series of named valleys and flats, such as Phillips Flats and Bennett Valley, which supported grazing operations including the Keenan Ranch and Rounsburg Ranch. The map reveals the critical importance of water and shelter in this environment, marking numerous camps and wells like Wells Camp and Peterson Camp alongside the winding course of Blue Creek.
