1964 Map of Dayton North

About this map

The Tongue River valley serves as the focal point for this survey of northern Sheridan County, where the plains meet the foothills of the Bighorn Mountains. The settlement of Dayton anchors the southeastern corner, showing a detailed network of streets and irrigation infrastructure including the Highline Ditch and Mock Ditch No 2. This area is defined by its ranching heritage and water management, illustrated by the presence of the Bear Claw Ranch and Padlock Ranch, alongside an extensive system of canals like the Five Mile Ditch and Brand Point Ditch. The Burlington Northern railroad corridor, formerly the Chicago Burlington and Northern, cuts a winding path through the center of the map, passing through the small community of Parkman and navigating the elevations of Grande Gulch. Numerous reservoirs, such as Antwerp Reservoir and Barker Reservoir, highlight the critical role of water storage in this semi-arid landscape.
