1989 Map of Wolford Valley

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Wolford Valley and Survey Valley define the rolling sandhill terrain of the Nebraska panhandle, where cattle ranching is the primary footprint on the land. In the late 1980s, the area remained a network of isolated homesteads and family holdings, including the P Strasburger Ranch and E Strasburger Ranch. The map captures a way of life centered on widely spaced water sources and rural education, evidenced by the Spade Sch and the various Spade Ranch outposts. A series of distinctive depressions in the landscape hold notable water bodies like Bean Soup Lake, Big Dad Lake, and Home Lake, which are essential for livestock in this arid environment. The line between Sheridan Co and Cherry Co bisects the eastern portion of the map, marking a quiet administrative boundary across the vast plains.
