1952 Map of Lander SE

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Little Popo Agie River carves through the northwest corner of this Fremont County landscape, defining the fertile stretch known as Lyons Valley. Settlement patterns in the early 1950s remained sparse, anchored by the Hall Ranch near the river and the locality of Brynt to the south. An Old Railroad Grade traces a path through the northern hills, a vestige of earlier industrial efforts that once served local coal interests like the Coal Mine and Williams Mine. The rugged topography is characterized by deep erosional features such as Fivemile Draw and Hudson Draw, which cut toward the river from the high country of Blue Ridge. This 1952 field-checked survey captures a transitional moment for the region's agricultural and mining infrastructure, including irrigation works like the Millard Ditch.
