1951 Map of Ringling

USGS Topo · Published 1976

About this map

The high plains of Meagher County are defined by a network of ranchlands and legacy transportation routes in the mid-20th century. At the center of this landscape sits Ringling, a key point where the Chicago Milwaukee St Paul and Pacific railroad intersects with the White Sulphur Springs and Yellowstone Park Road. The map provides a look at the shifting nature of mountain-state transit, noting the W.S.S. & Y.P. (Aban'd) rail line and the historic Moss Agate (Old Stage Station) along the South Fork Smith River. Family ranching legacy is documented through several named homesteads and agricultural sites, including Adkison Ranch, Kuhnes Ranch, and the Higgins Ranch. Traces of earlier occupancy are visible in several inactive sites, such as the Bruce Place, the Quigley Ranch, and a Quarry located west of Horse Butte.
