1959 Map of Miller Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1961

About this map

Sweetwater Rocks dominates this high-plains landscape in central Wyoming, where the granite outcrops rise abruptly from the basin floor. The mapping captures a quiet period in Natrona County during the late 1950s, showing the intersection of ranching life and early natural resource exploration. Evidence of human activity is sparse but significant, centered on the Riddle Ranch and a lone Mine site. Water, the most critical resource in this arid terrain, is carefully documented through features like Miller Spring and the drainage of Dry Creek. The layout of unimproved roads and geographic landmarks like Wolf Gap and Ordway Pocket illustrates the navigation patterns used by locals and prospectors before the expansion of more modern infrastructure.
