1955 Map of Overland

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Midway (Old Stage Station) and the Overland Trail anchor this mid-century look at Carbon County, marking a corridor of westward expansion that predates the modern infrastructure shown here. The map traces the transition from historic wagon routes to the industrial presence of the Union Pacific railroad and a prominent north-south Pipeline. In the southern portion, the North Platte River winds through the landscape near Byers Ranch, supported by an intricate system of water management including the Pick Ditch and Brauer Ditch.
