1975 Map of Baggs NW

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Muddy Creek meanders through the heart of this high-altitude Wyoming landscape, cutting a deep path through the arid terrain of the Baggs NW quadrangle. Captured during a 1975 aerial survey by the U.S. Geological Survey, this orthophotoquad provides a stark visual record of the land's complex drainage patterns and geological textures. To the northwest, the seasonal drainage of Robbers Gulch feeds into the larger system, while the elevated region identified as Pines stands out against the surrounding draws. The photographic detail reveals the network of ranch roads and cattle trails that defined Carbon County land use in the mid-1970s, long before modern digital mapping, offering a precise look at the vegetation and soil composition of the high plains.
