1985 Map of Pike Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1986

About this map

The Judith Mountains dominate this mid-1980s landscape, revealing a history of resource extraction and water management in Fergus County. Evidence of the area's industrial past is scattered across the terrain, from the Old RR Grade cutting through the center to various Coal Mines and an Abandoned Coal Mine. This extraction history is contrasted by the specialized utility of the State Fish Hatchery and the South State Fish Hatchery located near the headwaters of Big Spring Creek. Small rural settlements like Boyd and Dunlap serve as anchors along the creek valleys. Geologists and local historians can trace the transition from mining to other land uses, noting specialized sites such as a Gypsum Quarry and a Gravel Pit, alongside the natural drainage patterns of Pike Creek and Boyd Creek.
