1950 Map of Hoyt

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

Hoyt and its surrounding high plains landscape are defined by the winding course of Bijou Creek as it was mapped at mid-century. This region on the Morgan and Adams County line reflects a ranching and utility-focused economy, anchored by the Hoyt Cemetery and the Long Meadow Community Center. The presence of specialized infrastructure, including the USGS Testing and Recording Station and the USBR Substation, suggests the importance of water management and technical monitoring in this arid environment. The terrain is marked by seasonal drainage patterns from Antelope Creek and Rock Creek, which converge toward the larger floodplains. Genealogists and local historians can trace the early road network and the positioning of prominent landforms like Bidwell Hill and the waters of Moore Reservoir No 4, which were vital to the settlement's survival in the Missouri River Basin.
