2014 Map of Sunflower Lake

About this map

The Middle Br Middle Loup River and N Br Middle Loup River wind through the undulating sandhills of Cherry County, defining the drainage patterns of this Nebraska landscape. This 2014 survey captures a sparsely populated region where water sources and elevation contours are the primary landmarks. Significant bodies of water such as Sunflower Lake and Krumpf Lake provide clear focal points for local geography. The transportation network is concentrated along the eastern edge of the quadrangle, primarily consisting of Whitman Rd and N Whitman Rd. These routes represent the primary access points through the dunes, connecting isolated ranching lands to the broader region. The map reflects the enduring character of the Sandhills, where natural hydrography remains more prominent than human development.
