About this map

Oglala National Grassland dominates the landscape of this northwest corner of Nebraska, where the arid plains meet the South Dakota border. The terrain is defined by a series of drainage systems, including the meandering paths of Indian Creek, Antelope Creek, and Squaw Creek, which flow toward Hat Creek in the southeast. This 1980s-era study illustrates a sparsely populated ranching environment, centered on family-held operations such as Wasserburger Ranch and Henry Ranch. The presence of several Gravel Pits suggests localized resource extraction to support the area's network of light-duty and unimproved roads. The map serves as a detailed record of land use and water management in Sioux County, documenting numerous stock tanks and windmills essential for maintaining livestock across the expansive open range.
