1951 Map of Dutch Nick Flat NW

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Mueller Cabin sits as a lonely human landmark in this high desert landscape, mapped during a 1951 field check as part of the Missouri River Basin development program. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainages, where Fifteen Mile Creek and Rock Waterhole Creek carve deep into the plateau. The survey reveals a sparsely populated corner of the Bighorn Basin, where the boundary between Big Horn Co and Washakie Co cuts across the southern ridges. Travel through the region is marked by the rugged Fenton Pass Road, which traces the high ground above Bobcat Draw. This map records the land as it existed before modern shifts in ranching and resource extraction, capturing a period when small outposts like the cabin were essential markers for navigation and land use in the Wyoming interior.
