1952 Map of Grave Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Grave Spring serves as a central landmark in this high-altitude landscape where the Bighorn Mountains drop toward the Powder River Basin. The intricate drainage network of the early 1950s is remarkably detailed, showing the convergence of the North Fork, Middle Fork, and South Fork Powder River. This area, mapped for the Missouri River Basin development program, captures the topography of Wyoming's ranching and livestock country before modern infrastructure altered local trails. Points of interest for local historians include Pearce and the various branches of Buffalo Creek and Cottonwood Creek. The presence of VABM 8863 Pearce and numerous benchmark markers across the slopes illustrates the intense surveying effort required to document these high ridges and spring-fed canyons.
