About this map

The northern reaches of the Crescent Lake National Wildlife Refuge define the southern portion of this landscape, where a series of small, isolated basins and lakes emerge from the interdunal spaces. The terrain is characterized by an intricate network of named drainage basins and depressions, including Young Valley, Lost Bull Valley, and Black Steer Valley, which illustrate the complex hydrology of the Nebraska Sandhills. These valleys often contain small seasonal water bodies or wetlands such as Britton Lake and Black Lake. The transition between the high dunes and these low-lying valleys, including Feesterman Valley and Devasier Valley, indicates a landscape primarily utilized for cattle ranching and conservation. Named landmarks like Rackett and Mc Carty Lake offer specific points of interest for those tracing the history of land use and water management in Garden County during the mid-1980s.
