1963 Map of Midway

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Midway serves as a central point in this 1963 survey of Laramie County, Wyoming, situated at the junction of Hillsdale Road and an unimproved east-west track. The landscape is defined by the complex drainage systems of Horse Creek and its many branches, including Little Horse Creek and Middle Horse Creek, which carve through the high plains terrain. Land use is predominantly agricultural and ranching-oriented, evidenced by named locations like J R Ranch and infrastructure such as the Rhodes Windmill and The South Windmill. Local water management is highlighted by the presence of Donahue Reservoir, fed by Donahue Spring and the Ditch system in the northern portion of the map. These features, along with scattered wells and a Corral, reflect the essential role of water distribution in the development of this semi-arid ranching country during the mid-20th century.
