1969 Map of Darlington

About this map

The Big Lost River Valley serves as a vital corridor for irrigation and transit in this late-1960s survey of Custer and Butte counties. Small agricultural settlements like Leslie and Darlington are connected by the Union Pacific Railroad and a sophisticated network of water management features, including the Union Ditch, Blaine Canal, and Moore Canal. This infrastructure highlights the intensive effort to manage the Big Lost River as it passes through the Darlington Sinks, utilizing engineering works such as a Siphon, Flume, and Chute to direct water across the arid landscape.
