1950 Map of Bonneville SW

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

The Wind River Indian Reservation dominates the landscape of this 1950s survey, defined by the winding course of the Wind River and the stark elevation of Sand Mesa. This territory in Fremont County serves as a vital transportation corridor, where the Chicago Burlington and Quincy and Chicago and North Western railroads parallel the river’s path. The map records a transition in land use, showing scattered Windmills and Wells across the arid Sand Hills south of Badwater Creek. Industrial traces are evident near the reservation boundary at Emery and various Gravel Pits, while hydrological management is noted at the Gaging Sta along Cottonwood Creek. The intricate drainage network of Tough Creek and Birdseye Creek illustrates the complex topography surrounding the Big Horn landmark.
