1968 Map of Kappes Canyon

About this map

Quaking Asp Mtn dominates the eastern horizon of this landscape, where the high desert plateaus are deeply incised by a network of dry washes and seasonal flows. Resource extraction and infrastructure define the human footprint during the late 1960s, evidenced by a Coal Mine and a Mine Dump located near the head of Barney Canyon. The presence of several high-pressure pipelines crossing the northern terrain suggests the area's role as a transit corridor for Wyoming’s energy sector.
