1958 Map of Bengough Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

The Overland Trail cuts across the high plains of the Laramie Basin, tracing a historic path through a landscape defined by ranching and early petroleum development. This mid-century survey reveals a complex water management system essential for this arid region, featuring various irrigation structures like Twomile Ditch, Canon Ditch, and the Northrop Ditch No 1. The map documents the spatial relationship between traditional land use at Dunn Ranch and Jankovsky Ranch and the industrial footprint of the Dutton Creek Oil Field and Cooper Cove Oil Field. Numerous water bodies, including King Reservoir No 1 and Bosler Reservoir (Diamond Lake), punctuate the terrain near Bengough Hill. The boundary between Carbon and Albany counties is clearly delineated, crossing several seasonal drainages such as Sheep Creek and Dutton Creek.
