1960 Map of Rocky Hollow

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

Horse Creek and its seasonal tributaries carve a distinct drainage pattern across this high plains landscape at the dawn of the 1960s. Surveyed as part of a Missouri River Basin development program, the map focuses on the complex topography where Goshen Co meets Laramie Co. The land is defined by a series of narrow drainage corridors including Dater Creek and the marshy reaches of Cattail Creek. This sheet highlights the transition from open range to the deeply eroded breaks of Rocky Hollow, revealing a rugged geography utilized primarily for livestock ranching. The lack of concentrated settlements underscores the rural nature of the Wyoming borderlands during this era, where unimproved dirt roads and selected fence lines provide the primary evidence of human modification to the natural terrain.
