1962 Map of P O Ranch

About this map

P O Ranch serves as the namesake landmark for this Laramie County landscape, characterized by the expansive grazing lands and drainage systems typical of the high plains in the early 1960s. The map illustrates a rural social fabric through essential community sites like Goggins School and Ridley Sch, reflecting a time when localized school districts anchored these ranching territories. The topography is defined by the winding course of Lodgepole Creek, which is augmented by the North Lodgepole Ditch, indicating the vital importance of water management in this environment. Transportation and industry are noted via the Indian Hill Road and scattered Gravel Pits, while natural depressions such as Peach Lake, Chivington Draw, and Ninemile Draw provide the primary geographical relief across the rolling terrain.
