1949 Map of Chalk Buttes

USGS Topo · Published 1991

About this map

The Emigrant Wagon Trail cuts a diagonal path through this landscape, marking the enduring legacy of the westward migration routes south of Douglas. This survey, conducted as part of the Missouri River Basin development program, captures the intersection of pioneering history and mid-century topographical mapping. Multiple instances of the Oregon Trail Monument are documented along the route as it traverses the high ground between the North Platte River and the prominent rising mass of Sheep Mountain.
