1960 Map of Sheep Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1964

About this map

Old Casper Medicine Bow Highway winds through this 1960 landscape in Natrona County, serving as the primary artery for a sparsely settled region defined by wide drainages and isolated ranching outposts. The terrain is dominated by the complex erosion patterns of Bates Hole, where the land drops away into a series of draws including Kerfoot Draw and Chalk Mud Draw. Local history is anchored at the Milne Ranch and Steeple Ranch, which represent the enduring livestock operations of central Wyoming. Water sources, vital for survival in this environment, are clearly marked at Mud Springs and Indian Spring. The map captures the area just before modern highway developments, showing the small settlement of Holin and the winding course of Sheep Creek as they appeared during the mid-twentieth century.
