2021 Map of Windmill Lake
USGS Topo · Published 2021About this map
The Samuel R McKelvie National Forest dominates the northern landscape of this Cherry County quadrangle, where the expansive Merritt Reservoir and its Cedar Bay create a significant hydrological center in the Nebraska Sandhills. The terrain is defined by a complex network of wetlands and seasonal drainages, including the sluggish waters of Swanson Swamp and the winding paths of Gordon Cr and Boardman Cr. For local history researchers, the Kennedy Cem near the eastern boundary serves as a vital genealogical anchor in this sparsely populated region. The map illustrates the 2021 state of a landscape where human footprints like Mercure Rd are secondary to the persistent natural features like Windmill Lake and the surrounding township and range divisions.
