1952 Map of Lander SE

USGS Topo · Published 1956

About this map

The Little Popo Agie Valley and the surrounding high desert terrain define this mid-century survey of the Wyoming landscape. The confluence of the Popo Agie River and the Little Popo Agie River serves as the primary hydrological focus, supporting local operations like the Hall Ranch. Evidence of the area's resource extraction history is scattered across the draws, including a Coal Mine and the Williams Mine, alongside a Gravel Pit. These industrial sites are connected by remnants of transport infrastructure, most notably the Old Railroad Grade which snakes through the northern hills. The topography is marked by significant rises such as Blue Ridge and Monument Butte, while a network of seasonal drainages like Coal Mine Draw and Hudson Draw carve into the plateau, illustrating the intersection of ranching and mining during the early 1950s.
