1964 Map of Rock Creek

About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest dominates the upper half of this high-plains landscape, where the headwaters of numerous creeks carve through the terrain. The map records a sparsely settled ranching and wilderness area at the boundary of Converse and Albany counties, defined by natural landmarks like Breakneck Hill and Peach Orchard. The hydrological network is the primary feature of this survey, anchored by the North Fork Little Medicine Bow River and the South Fork Little Medicine Bow River, which converge amidst a web of drainage like Cruikshank Creek and Bell Creek.
