1953 Map of Seminoe Dam SW

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

I D Ranch and I D Camp stand as primary focal points in this mid-century portrait of Carbon County high-desert terrain. The landscape is defined by the expansion of the Seminoe Reservoir in the east, which reaches into the drainages of Hurt Creek and O'Brien Creek. Significant industrial activity is evidenced by an Oil Well (Inactive) located on Cheyenne Ridge and a nearby Airstrip. The elevation is marked by prominent landforms such as Windy Ridge and I D Ridge, while the Seminoe Road provides the main artery through the complex system of coulees and draws including Rankin Creek and Coal Creek. This survey reflects the post-war efforts of the Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, documenting the intersection of water management, cattle ranching, and early energy exploration.
