1952 Map of Lander SE

About this map

The Popo Agie River and Little Popo Agie River define this Fremont County landscape during the early 1950s, where water management and resource extraction shaped local settlement. Agricultural activity is anchored by the Hall Ranch in the north, supported by a network of irrigation channels including Wise Ditch, Millard Ditch, and Lyons Ditch. The map illustrates the region's reliance on these systems to sustain life within the Lyons Valley. To the east and south, the terrain rises toward Blue Ridge, cut by numerous dry coulees such as Coal Mine Draw and Monument Draw. Industrial sites like the Williams Mine, a separate Coal Mine, and a Gravel Pit indicate the mid-century extraction economy. Natural water sources like Carr Springs provide vital points of interest in an otherwise arid and dissected topographic environment.
