1960 Map of Mc Compsey Pass

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Sixty Six Mountain dominates the landscape of this high-plains region straddling the border of Wyoming and Nebraska. This 1960 survey documents a transition from the elevated terrain at Mc Compsey Pass down to the expansive Spear Flat and Hull area. The presence of numerous water sources, such as The Culp Spring, Huntington Springs, and the State Line Springs, reveals a territory where water management was critical for cattle ranching. Unique local landforms like Devils Armchair and deep incisions like Driscoll Canyon break the horizon. At the southern edge, Pumpkin Creek Road and Pumpkin Creek trace the lower elevations, while scattered improvements like the Spahr Ranch show the sparse but persistent human footprint on the land.
