1961 Map of Encampment

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Encampment and neighboring Riverside serve as the primary hubs in this early 1960s survey of southern Wyoming, where the high plains meet the timbered slopes of the Medicine Bow National Forest. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of irrigation ditches, including the Union Pacific Ditch, Brownlee Ditch, and Cherokee Ditch, which supported the region's ranching economy. Family-held lands like Peryam Ranch and Finch Ranch are clearly marked alongside landmarks like the local Rodeo Ground and the Encampment Cem.
