1955 Map of Indian Guide

About this map

South Sybille Creek and its complex network of tributaries, including the West Fork South Sybille Creek and Grant Creek, define the topography of this high country during the mid-1950s. The landscape is characterized by prominent drainage systems and high points like Iron Mountain and the Indian Guide landmark. Evidence of early infrastructure and community centers is preserved here, most notably the Old Wheatland Road winding through the hills and small educational outposts such as South Sybille Sch and Shaffer Sch. This survey, conducted as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, reveals a sparsely populated ranching or grazing territory where water sources like Little Creek and Spring Cr were vital to local activity at the tri-county junction of Albany, Platte, and Laramie.
