2011 Map of Stonehouse Ranch

About this map

Gracie Creek meanders through this portion of Loup County, defining the primary drainage for a landscape shaped by the Nebraska Sandhills. At the time of this 2011 survey, the area remains an open ranching territory characterized by a sparse network of section-line roads and interior trails. The hydrological patterns shown along Gracie Creek suggest a seasonal flow typical of the region's sandy soils, where water bodies often fluctuate or appear as small, isolated ponds across the terrain. For those interested in the rural development of the central part of the state, the map provides a clear look at the relationship between water access and the placement of remote ranch buildings and infrastructure.
