1961 Map of Overlook Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The North Platte River winds through this mountain landscape within the Medicine Bow National Forest, illustrating a mid-century period of land management and ranching. The map details a complex irrigation network including the Hubbell Ditch, Finfrock Ditch, and Anderson Ditch, which redirect water from alpine tributaries to support lower valley operations. Established ranching properties like the A Bar A Ranch and French Creek Ranch appear alongside recreational sites such as the French Creek Picnic Ground and Douglas Creek Picnic Ground. This 1961 survey, mapped as part of the Missouri River Basin development program, shows a rugged terrain defined by significant elevations like Overlook Hill and Stovepipe Hill. The density of named water features, from South French Creek to Savage Run Creek, underscores the critical role of mountain snowmelt in the local hydrological system.
