1938 Map of Gallup City

USGS Topo · Published 1942

About this map

The high plains of Pondera and Teton counties are defined by a network of wide, flat benches and the winding coulees that drain them during the late 1930s. Gallup City serves as a central point in this ranching landscape, surrounded by an extensive system of rural schools including Lincoln Sch, Erickson Sch, and Porter Bench Sch. The presence of numerous named homesteads, such as the Graham Ranch, Smith Ranch, and Scoffon Ranch, illustrates the settlement patterns of the era, where family-run operations anchored the local economy. Water management is critical in this environment, shown through the Agawam Canal, Bynum Canal, and Conrad Reservoir. Transportation relies on a mix of established routes like the Conrad Pendroy Road and the Montana Western railroad, which skirts the northeastern corner of the map near Manson.
