About this map

Crescent Lake National Wildlife Refuge dominates the western portion of this landscape, its boundary cutting a diagonal line across the Sandhills terrain. The settlement of Rackett sits near the center, serving as a hub for the surrounding ranching country in the mid-1980s. The topography is defined by a series of distinct depressions and drainage basins, including Bennett Valley, Wymore Valley, and Gate Valley, which contrast with the level expanses of Adams Flats and Phillips Flats. Private landholdings like Jensen Ranch and Grace Ranch are interspersed with the protected refuge lands, illustrating the region's historical reliance on cattle grazing. Remote water features such as Ward Lake in the east and Upper Jones Valley in the northwest provide essential resources for both wildlife and livestock in this semi-arid environment.
