1964 Map of Protsmans Knob

About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest dominates the southern half of this landscape, where the high ground of Protsmans Knob rises above a complex network of seasonal drainages and springs. The map documents a rugged ranching and timber environment in the mid-1960s, punctuated by the Miller Cabin and an isolated Prospect in the northern hills. The drainage patterns of Deer Creek and its many tributaries, including Naguidai Creek and Little Deer Creek, carve through the terrain, defining the movement of early travel.
