1899 Map of Goshen Hole

USGS Topo · Published 1916

About this map

Goshen Hole defines this expanse of the Wyoming and Nebraska borderlands, where the High Plains drop into a significant depression. Surveyed in 1895, the landscape is primarily organized around a series of family-held cattle operations, including Greasewood Ranch, Yoder's Ranch, and Marshalls Ranch. These sites represent the early ranching economy of the region before the widespread arrival of dry-land farming. Settlement centers are sparse, anchored by La Grange and Meriden along the southern watercourses.
