1953 Map of Seminoe Dam NE

USGS Topo · Published 1969

About this map

The Seminoe Mountains dominate this 1953 landscape, where the North Platte River carves through deep canyons and feeds the Seminoe Reservoir. This high-desert region of Carbon County reveals a network of mid-century cattle operations, including the Vivian Ranch, Hamilton Ranch, and Nine Bar W Ranch. The geography is defined by complex drainage systems like Number One, Number Two, and Number Three Gulch, which cut toward the river valley. Sparse but vital infrastructure for local families is evident at Threemile School and Lost Creek School, alongside recreational and social hubs like the Sage Creek Clubhouse. The presence of Kortes Dam Camp near Seminoe Canyon reflects the era's focus on water management and energy development in the Missouri River Basin. To the northeast, the Shirley Basin Road provides a corridor through the Shirley Basin, connecting these remote ranching outposts to the wider region.
