1952 Map of Kates Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

Wind River Indian Reservation land dominates this 1952 topographic study, where high-altitude drainages and complex ridgelines define the border between Hot Springs and Fremont counties. The landscape is characterized by the massive uplift of the Owl Creek Mountains, which rise sharply above Kates Basin. Significant hydrological data is captured through the intricate branches of Mud Creek, including the Middle Fork and South Fork tributaries. Evidence of early high-country settlement is visible at the Duncan Homestead near the northern boundary. The mapping reveals a remote environment where water sources like Cottonwood Creek and various unnamed springs were critical for sustaining life and livestock in the arid Wyoming terrain.
