1962 Map of Federal

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The settlement of Federal and the high plains of Laramie County are defined by a complex network of water management and rail transport in this mid-century survey. The landscape is marked by the winding courses of Lodgepole Creek and South Lodgepole Creek, which supported early ranching operations like the Islay Ranch and King-Merritt Ranch. The agricultural reliance on irrigation is evident through a series of engineered water features, including Chadwick Ditch No 1, Chadwick Ditch No 2, and Dyer Ditch No 8, which feed the Chadwick Res No 1 and Chadwick Res No 2.
