1971 Map of Pats Bottom

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Monument Seminoe Mine Ridge anchors the southeastern landscape of this 1971 survey, where the rugged topography of Carbon County meets the industrial legacy of Wyoming mining. The North Platte River flows into the expansive Seminoe Reservoir, a central water body that reshaped the local geography. Significant landforms like Edson Ridge and the Saint Marys area provide a framework for the drainage systems, including Dry Ditch and the aptly named Pats Bottom along the reservoir's edge. This map reveals a transition between hydraulic infrastructure and resource extraction, evidenced by scattered Mines and the Steel Granary Reservoir. The U. S. Bureau of Reclamation's influence is clear, as the map documents the reservoir's high-water mark and the surrounding network of ditches and natural springs that sustained life and industry in this arid high-plains environment.
