1960 Map of Ninemile Point

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Bighorn River carves a deep valley through this Big Horn County landscape, punctuated by the sharp bend at Ninemile Point. This 1960s survey reveals a landscape defined by irrigation and infrastructure, where the Big Horn Low Line Canal, Two Leggins Canal, and Farmers Canal trace the contours of the river valley to support local agriculture. The transition from early rail era to mid-century industrialization is evident in the presence of an Old RR Grade alongside the modern Sugar Refinery near Whitman. Local life centers on the river bottom and adjacent coulees, with established holdings like the Miller Ranch and Ottun Ranch situated near Ninemile Creek. Educational and recreational history is marked by the Nine Mile Sch and the Ft Custer Country Club to the south, while the northern edge touches the Crow Indian Reservation Boundary.
