1965 Map of Browns Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Nevada Valley floor dominates this mid-1960s survey of Powell County, revealing a landscape defined by glacial activity and river hydrology. Broad, level expanses like Kleinschmidt Flat are punctuated by numerous kettles and basins, most notably Browns Lake and the smaller Kleinschmidt Lake. The North Fork Blackfoot River and the main stem of the Blackfoot River meander through the terrain, joined by oddly named tributaries such as Yourname Creek. Human engineering is visible through the Ditch 4 irrigation work and the Raymond Bridge crossing. The map documents the area just as the Campground at Browns Lake was serving as a localized recreation hub, while the surrounding flats remained focused on ranching and resource extraction, evidenced by the scattered Gravel Pits near the settlement of Kleinschmidt.
