1961 Map of Indian Rocks

USGS Topo · Published 1974

About this map

The high plains and ranching country of southern Wyoming come into sharp focus in this mid-century survey, defined by the intricate water management systems essential to the region. Numerous irrigation networks, including Haines Ditch, Trapp Ditch, and Cherokee Ditch, crisscross the terrain to support livestock operations. Settlement is sparse and centered on established family holdings such as Bartlett Ranch and Berger Ranch in the north, while the southern portion of the sheet is dominated by the Medicine Bow National Forest. The map captures a landscape where every drainage and spring is named and utilized, from Methodist Creek to the southern Heather Creek. Prominent landmarks like the Indian Rocks stand out against the topographical contours, providing clear reference points for those tracking historic land use and land ownership in Carbon County.
