1952 Map of Arminto NW

About this map

Chicago Burlington and Quincy tracks through the high plains of Natrona County, following the natural corridor of Alkali Creek. This 1950s landscape reflects the ranching economy of the Missouri River Basin development era, punctuated by isolated homesteads like Todd Ranch and Sullivan Ranch. The drainage patterns are dominated by seasonal watercourses such as Poison Creek and Red Creek, where scattered Windmills and Corrals mark the essential infrastructure for livestock management in this arid environment. Surveyed shortly after aerial photography in 1949, the map provides a precise record of late-frontier Wyoming grazing lands, showing the locations of the Jack Ranch and Wight Ranch near the southern boundary. These named landmarks are vital for genealogists tracing family landholdings in the region before modern development or consolidation altered the rural township structure.
