1963 Map of Beecher Island Nw

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Arikaree River valley defines this Yuma County landscape, recorded during a 1963 survey and photoinspected in 1980 for the development of the Missouri River Basin. The terrain is a complex network of drainage systems, where the North Fork and South Fork converge amidst a dissected plateau. A notable human element on the sheet is a lone Grave located north of the river, a detail of significant value for genealogical research in this sparsely settled region. Evidence of early land use and resource extraction is visible through scattered Well sites and a Gravel Pit near Squaw Hill. The map also traces the winding paths of Black Wolf Creek and Dry Willow Creek, illustrating how the hydrology dictated the local geography long before modern alterations.
