1955 Map of Lake Ione

About this map

Laramie River dominates the northern landscape of this mid-century survey, winding through a complex system of hydraulic engineering essential to the high plains. The map details an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure, including the Ione Ditch, Gillespie Ditch, and Wallrock Ditch, which redirect water toward large natural and man-made basins like Long Lake and the Gillespie Reservoir. This water management system underscores the agricultural necessities of the era, supporting operations such as the Schmale Bros Ranch located near a prominent bend in the river.
