1987 Map of Whitman NW

USGS Topo · Published 1988

About this map

The North Branch Middle Loup River and Middle Branch Middle Loup River wind through this corner of Cherry County, defining a landscape of braided waterways and low-lying wetlands. Ranching interests are central to the local geography in the late 1980s, marked by established operations such as the Rothwell Ranch and Dumbbell Ranch. The presence of the Red Mill School indicates a persistent community infrastructure in this rural Nebraska expanse, where water management is highlighted by several Flowing Wells and a notable Spoil Bank near the river forks. In the southeast, Krumpf Lake provides a clear landmark among the hills, while the "Middle Branch" label further identifies the intricate drainage network that feeds into the Loup River system. This provisional data reflects the region's agricultural character and the essential role of groundwater in sustaining local ranch life.
