1957 Map of Oshoto

USGS Topo · Published 1959

About this map

The Little Missouri River meanders through this Wyoming landscape, defining a ranching and homesteading region marked by the historic Texas Trail. In the late 1950s, the small settlement of Oshoto served as a local hub, anchored by the Oshoto Sch and the nearby Oshoto Reservoir. The map reveals a community-centered topography where rural education was a priority, evidenced by scattered schoolhouses including Rathbun Sch, Barlow Canyon Sch, and the Lower Cabin Creek Sch in the southern reaches. Distinctive terrain features like the Missouri Buttes and the Weehinkle Divide rise above the drainage networks of Cabin Creek and Ash Creek. Evidence of local faith and gathering places persists in labels like Pine Grove Chapel and the small station at New Haven. The intricate system of draws, such as Gumbo Draw and Alkali Draw, illustrates the complex erosion patterns and water management needs of the high plains.
