1975 Map of Baggs NE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Smiley Draw dominates the drainage patterns of this high-altitude Wyoming terrain, captured in a mid-1970s orthophotomap that emphasizes the physical geometry of the land over human development. This specific quadrangle reflects a period of meticulous aerial surveying by the U.S. Geological Survey, using 1:80,000 scale photography to document the complex erosion and ridge lines of the Carbon County landscape. While many contemporary topographic maps focus on roads and structures, this orthophoto provides a direct visual record of the natural surface, showing the intricate shadows and textures of the basins and draws that defined the region before later industrial or infrastructure changes. It is a stark, utilitarian document of the western wilderness, recording the exact state of the soil and vegetation as it appeared on August 29, 1975.
