1965 Map of Evanston
USGS Topo · Published 1979About this map
The railroad hub of Evanston serves as the focal point of this 1960s survey, updated in the late 1970s. The town's industrial and civic footprint is clearly defined by the Union Pacific tracks, the State Hosp, and the local Fairground. The landscape transitions from the urban center to the surrounding Wyoming high country, characterized by numerous drainages like Dry Canyon and Limekiln Gulch. Water management is prominent through features like the Crompton Reservoir and the Aqueduct, supporting the community alongside the winding Bear River. Genealogists and local historians will find significant value in the detailed layout of the local Cemetery and the residential expansion near Hamblin Park. Traces of the region's earlier travel routes are visible in the Old Rocky Mountain Road, which contrasts with the modern developments of the Evanston Municipal Airport and emerging Pipelines.
