1950 Map of Alcova
USGS Topo · Published 1985About this map
The North Platte River defines this high-desert landscape in central Wyoming, where the massive waters of the Alcova Reservoir are held back by the Alcova Dam. This 1950 survey, updated with late-twentieth-century revisions, documents the critical infrastructure of the Missouri River Basin development program, including the Casper Canal and the downstream Gray Reef Reservoir. The village of Alcova sits at the base of the dam, serving as a hub for the irrigation and power projects that transformed this arid stretch of Natrona County.
