1962 Map of Mc Donald Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The rugged drainage systems of the Richeau Hills define this high-plains landscape where the Platte Co Laramie Co line divides the terrain. Cattle ranching and remote schoolhouses anchor the local geography in the early 1960s, with legacy properties like Diamond Ranch and Mc Donald Ranch positioned along the essential watercourses. The network of seasonal drainages, including North Steer Draw and South Steer Draw, reveals how the land was managed for livestock before modern intensification. Isolated landmarks such as the Mc Donald Sch and the settlement at Duval reflect the sparse, community-centered layout of the era. The mapping of Chugwater Creek and Richeau Creek provides a clear view of the natural hydrology that dictated settlement patterns across this section of Wyoming.
