About this map

Snake River Falls defines this Nebraska landscape, where the Snake River carves a deep, winding path through the sand hills of Cherry County. The northern reaches of the Merritt Reservoir dominate the southwestern corner, surrounded by the Merritt Reservoir State Wildlife Management Area. This mid-1980s data highlights a sparsely populated region primarily managed for conservation and ranching, evidenced by the western boundary of the Samuel R Mc Kelvie National Forest. Human infrastructure is light, represented by remote outposts like the Tioga-Burge Sch and small private runways including the Flying Diamond Landing Strip. Water management is a visible priority for the era, with the Ainsworth Canal cutting across the terrain to move water from the reservoir system to distant agricultural fields.
