1960 Map of Otter Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1971

About this map

Muddy Mountain dominates this portion of the Wyoming landscape, where the high-altitude terrain is defined by ranching life and a complex network of seasonal drainages. Established ranch sites like the Milne Ranch, Harris Ranch, and Brooks Ranch are positioned along the lower elevations where water is accessible from streams such as Muddy Creek and Smith Creek. The inclusion of a Cow Camp in the northeastern quadrant suggests the area's primary use for cattle grazing during the summer months. To manage water in this arid environment, early 20th-century irrigation efforts are evident in the Silver State Ditch No 1 and Lone Bear Ditch No 2. Further south, the map captures the headwaters of Otter Creek and the beginnings of Deer Creek Park, showing a transition from the prominent Hogback ridge toward the high plateau country.
