About this map

The Shoshone River valley defines the landscape of this mid-1960s survey, where an intricate network of irrigation projects like the Sidon Canal and Elk-Lovell Canal turned the arid Big Horn Basin into a productive agricultural hub. Centered on the town of Lovell, the map documents a community deeply tied to both the land and industry, featuring a Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line and a local Drive-in Theater. Beyond the town limits, the geography transitions into the Oil Field near Byron, showing the dual importance of petroleum extraction and beet farming in this region.
