1970 Map of Lost Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Lost Springs serves as the primary hub of this eastern Wyoming landscape, situated along the southern tracks of the Chicago And North Western railroad. The topography is defined by the drainage systems of Lost Creek and the East Fork Twentymile Creek, which cut through the high plains. Industrial activity is visible at the Rosin Mine near the settlement of Rosin, with evidence of geological exploration marked by several Drill Holes scattered across the township lines. An Old Railroad Grade in the northern sections suggests a shift in the local transportation network, while landmarks like Rocky Top provide distinct navigational points. The boundary between Converse Co and Niobrara County bisects the eastern edge of the sheet, illustrating the administrative divisions of this ranching and mining country during the early 1970s.
