1957 Map of Miles Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1979

About this map

Miles Ranch and Thompson Ranch anchor this mid-century look at the high desert terrain straddling the border of Fremont and Natrona Counties. The landscape is defined by a network of seasonal drainages, including the bifurcating West Canyon Creek and East Canyon Creek, which navigate through complex topographic forms like Castle Gardens. This 1957 survey was conducted as part of the Department of the Interior's Missouri River Basin development program, illustrating the era's focus on water resource management and land use in the Wyoming interior. Surveyors noted practical infrastructure such as a Corral and various Wells, reflecting the sheep or cattle ranching operations that utilized the sparse water of Deer Creek and Fraser Draw. The map provides specific elevation data through numerous benchmarks and the VABM Ants 6301 station, essential for local land navigation and historical property research.
