About this map

Eden Valley Cemetery serves as a quiet landmark in this sparsely settled corner of Sheridan County, defined by a rectilinear grid of section roads and low-lying water bodies. The southern portion of the quadrangle is dominated by the intricate hydrology of the Medicine Lake National Wildlife Refuge area, where Lake Creek and Sand Creek converge near several water control structures including Dam Number 10 and Medicine Lake Refuge Number 11 Dam.

Evidence of local land management and ranching history is visible through named family roads and landmarks like Maxam Rd and Black Out Dam. The northern landscape transitions into a drier upland prairie character, marked by features such as Rose Hl and the winding course of Neiser Creek. This map documents a high-plains geography where carefully managed water resources and remote homestead access roads are the primary indicators of human presence.
