1957 Map of Hudson

About this map

The Wind River Indian Reservation dominates the landscape of this mid-century Fremont County survey, where the convergence of the Popo Agie River and the Little Wind River dictates the region's agricultural and transit corridors. The town of Hudson serves as a central hub, situated at the junction of the Chicago and North Western railroad and the Little Popo Agie River. Extensive irrigation infrastructure, such as the Sub-Agency Ditch and Sharp Nose Drain, reveals the effort required to manage water in the Wyoming valley. Beyond the settlement, the Hudson Railroad Grade and several Gravel Pits point to the industrial and logistical needs of the era. Rare recreational markers like the Racetrack and the local City Dump provide specific points of interest for local historians and genealogists tracing the physical layout of the community as it functioned in the late 1950s.
