1964 Map of Lovell Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Shoshone River winds through the northern portion of this Big Horn County landscape, supporting an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure essential for the development of the Missouri River Basin. This mid-1960s survey documents the complex engineering of the Sunlight Canal, Globe Canal, and the Hunt-Godfrey route, which diverted water across the arid plains below the dramatic rise of Little Sheep Mountain. The industrial footprint of the era is evident in the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad line and various extractive sites, including a Claypit and several gravel pits. Topographic details illustrate the transition from the river valley to the high ridges, with Lovell Lakes and drainage systems like Sand Draw and Dry Creek providing critical landmarks in this highly managed agricultural and resource-rich environment.
