1951 Map of Pathfinder Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Pathfinder Dam stands as the engineering centerpiece of this mid-century survey, anchoring the massive Pathfinder Reservoir where the North Platte River meets the canyon lands. The landscape is defined by the sweeping boundaries of the Pathfinder National Wildlife Refuge, which protects the shoreline and surrounding breaks. In the southern portion of the sheet, the Pedro Mountains rise toward Rocky Gap, while the drainage network of Little Canyon Creek and Canyon Creek carves through the high desert terrain. The presence of named water sources like Poison Spring and Swede Spring highlights the vital importance of reliable water in this arid stretch of the Wyoming interior, providing essential reference points for land management and local history.
