1984 Map of Hole-in-the-wall

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Hole-In-The-Wall and the dramatic escarpment of the Red Wall define this landscape in Johnson County, Wyoming. This topographic record, compiled from 1970s aerial photography, captures a remote ranching environment characterized by extensive water management and livestock infrastructure. Numerous corrals, springs, and shearing pens are scattered across the draws, indicating the area's primary sheep and cattle operations. The map details a complex network of drainage systems including Buffalo Creek, Murphy Creek, and Posey Creek, which carve through the high plains terrain. Local landmarks such as Bar C Gap and Peterson Draw provide navigational points along the various jeep trails that navigate the breaks. The presence of a Drill Hole and Tank further illustrates the practical utility of the land for range management and resource exploration during the late twentieth century.
