1963 Map of Jelm Mountain

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Jelm Mountain dominates the high-altitude landscape of this part of southern Wyoming, rising above a complex network of draws and springs. The map documents an era of water management and cattle ranching in the early 1960s, evidenced by features like the Aqueduct, Old King Ditch, and the established Cole Ranch. Water is the defining resource here, with many named sources such as Barrel Spring and Lindsey Spring feeding into Lindsey Creek and Box Creek. The presence of several Quarries and scattered Prospects reveals the geological exploration occurring alongside the cattle operations. Notable peaks including Ring Mountain and Red Mountain create a rugged topography where isolated roads like Lookout Road provide access to the high ground overlooking the Laramie River.
