1966 Map of Gould Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Greybull River valley serves as the lifeblood of this Big Horn County landscape, where early irrigation networks such as the Farmers Canal, Agrarian Ditch, and White Ditch converted the semi-arid basins into productive land. Rural life is anchored by the Gould Sch and the Dorsey Sta, reflecting the decentralized settlement patterns of the mid-20th century. To the north, the terrain rises sharply toward the Emblem Bench and the prominent Gould Butte, cut by dramatic drainages like Horseshoe Draw and Dry Gulch. Numerous water management features including the Trigood Reservoir and Mc Kinnie Reservoir dot the higher elevations. The map reveals a land defined by its geology, from the Three Sisters peaks to the gravel pits and Sandstone deposits that supported local infrastructure and industry along the Greybull River Road.
