About this map

Sheep Mountain dominates the central landscape of this Platte County region, rising as a prominent landform amidst a network of drainage systems. The water distribution across the terrain is defined by the winding paths of Bluegrass Creek and Mule Creek, while the eastern reaches are marked by Deadhead Creek and Brush Creek. This mid-century survey, conducted as part of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, reveals a sparse ranching or agricultural environment where local education once centered at the Sybille School. A glimpse into the area's shifting activity is seen in the notations for a Mine (Aban'd) and the Rosentreter School (Aban'd), indicating former sites of industry and community that had already transitioned by the time of the 1953 field check.
