1973 Map of Epsie

About this map

The high-plains landscape of Powder River County reveals a network of seasonal watercourses and remote ranching settlements in the early 1970s. The small settlement of Epsie sits near the northern boundary, while Sanders and Flowing Wells mark points of activity further south. This region is defined by its drainage basins, where Mizpah Creek and its many tributaries, such as Two Tree Creek and Wiser Creek, carve through the terrain. The map captures the infrastructure of the era through several scattered wells and a notable Drill Hole in the eastern section.
