About this map

Pullman Valley and the surrounding Sandhills of Cherry County are defined by a complex network of seasonal lakes and winding watercourses as they appeared in the late 1980s. The landscape is dotted with isolated cattle operations such as Phillips Ranch, Becker Ranch, and Coble Ranch, reflecting the enduring ranching economy of this Nebraska region. Water is the primary geographic feature, with the North Loup River flowing through the southern portion while Gordon Creek cuts across the northern reaches. Numerous small bodies of water, including Wolf Lake, Rat Lake, and Duck Lake, suggest the high water table and interdunal basins characteristic of the area. This map provides a detailed view of the terrain elevations and the sparse network of unimproved roads that connected these remote homesteads and ranch lands.
