1983 Map of University Lake NE

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The rolling dunes and western rangelands of Sioux County define this high-plains landscape in the early 1980s. Extensive Sand formations characterize the topography, which is shaped by the headwaters of the South Branch Snake Creek and the North Br Snake Creek. Human presence is sparse, centered on established pastoral operations such as the Elliott Ranch and the Henderson Ranch. A single Grave noted in the southern portion of the map provides a quiet point of interest for genealogists and local historians, while the drainage of Mud Spr Cr marks the eastern reach of the quadrangle. This survey illustrates the isolation and topographic character of the Nebraska panhandle prior to modern developments, showing how early ranching families navigated and settled the complex terrain of the Sandhills.
