2017 Map of Wilson Valley

About this map

Wilson Valley characterizes this stretch of the Nebraska Sandhills, where the undulating landscape is defined by its characteristic depressions and wetlands. The area is marked by a scattering of small water bodies, most notably Rat Lake in the northwest and the duo of Skull Lake and Little Skull Lake to the south. This terrain represents the classic geography of Cherry County, where the high water table in the valleys creates these essential watering holes. Surveyed in the early 21st century, the map illustrates the precise township and range boundaries including t29n r26w, t29n r25w, t28n r26w, and t28n r25w, revealing a land largely dedicated to ranching and natural preservation rather than dense settlement.
