2014 Map of Stonehouse Ranch NE

About this map

Gracie Flats and the surrounding terrain of Rock County define this portion of the Nebraska Sandhills as it was recorded in 2014. The map reveals a landscape dominated by complex dune structures and interdunal valleys, characteristic of this unique physiographic region. In the northeast corner, Long Lake serves as a primary water feature among the depressions of the sandy plains. The absence of developed townsites or dense road networks reflects the specialized grazing and ranching economy that has historically shaped this part of the state, where vast tracts of land remain sparsely settled and centered on the management of natural water resources and prairie grass.
