2021 Map of Skunk Lake

About this map

Skunk Lake and its neighboring basins define this corner of Sheridan County, where the high-plains hydrology of northwestern Nebraska is on full display. The landscape is characterized by numerous small depressions and seasonal wetlands typical of the Sandhills region, with Dillings Lake and Goose Lake providing permanent water features in an otherwise arid grazing landscape. Settlement here is exceptionally sparse, defined more by the grid of the Public Land Survey System than by towns, with the terrain partitioned into sections under townships like t27n r45w and t26n r45w. Transportation is limited to remote tracks such as 326th Trl and 298th Trl, which navigate the interdunal valleys. This map captures the area in 2021, showing the enduring reliance on these isolated trails to access the scattered lakes and ranch lands that have sustained this region for generations.
