1965 Map of Big Dry School

USGS Topo · Published 1968

About this map

Big Dry School stands as a focal point in this 1960s landscape of Garfield County, marking a localized center of community in a region defined by its complex drainage network. The terrain is characterized by the meandering path of Big Dry Creek and a series of deeply etched coulees, including Long Coulee and McClay Coulee, which dictate the local topography. This map reveals a sparsely settled ranching or farming environment where land use is intimately tied to the seasonal watercourses like Graham Coulee and Sloan Coulee. The presence of fine red dashed lines indicating selected fence lines offers an unusual level of detail for researchers interested in historical property boundaries and land management practices during the mid-20th century.
