1951 Map of Grannis

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

Lower Shields Valley ranching and rail transport define this mid-century landscape in Park County, where the Shields River flows through a basin of irrigated fields and foothills. The Northern Pacific railroad tracks run through the settlement of Grannis, which served as a local focal point with its own Grannis School. The map documents a scattered network of family-operated livestock operations, including the Bohleen Ranch, Bonhomme Ranch, and Eyman Ranch, each situated near vital water sources like Adair Creek and Bullrun Creek. Rising above the valley floor, the terrain transitions into the steep elevations of Sheep Mountain and Rattlesnake Ridge, while local education was facilitated by the isolated Falls Creek School near the base of Cedar Butte.
