1990 Map of Wild Mare Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Wild Mare Lake and the surrounding Sandhills of Cherry County are shown here as they appeared during a 1988 field check. This ranching landscape is defined by its intermittent water bodies and isolated outposts, reflecting the specialized cattle operations of the Nebraska plains. Large-scale ranching is anchored by properties like Churn Ranch and Shadbolt Ranch, while Fairbanks Camp suggests the seasonal or operational movement of ranch hands across the vast terrain. The hydrology is dominated by Medicine Creek and small basins such as Heath Lake, which are critical resources in this semi-arid environment. Compiled from 1984 aerial photography, the map documents a sparse settlement pattern where roads are largely unimproved and land management is organized around the township and range system, specifically the boundary between T 32 N and T 31 N.
