1952 Map of Crowheart NW

USGS Topo · Published 1993

About this map

The Wind River Indian Reservation landscape is defined by its dramatic arid topography and critical water management systems in this mid-century survey. The terrain is marked by the course of Crow Creek as it winds southward toward the Wind River, which clips the southwestern corner of the quadrangle. Significant human modification of the natural hydrology is evident through Lannigans Ditch, a feature reflecting the importance of irrigation and water rights in the Wyoming basin. A prominent field of Sand Dunes sits in the lower valley, showing the movement of sediments against the backdrop of deep coulees like Ega Draw. This map preserves the 1952 state of the land with later 1970s updates, documenting a region where survival and settlement were tied directly to the precious flow of the river and its tributaries.
