1961 Map of Singer Peak

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Continental Divide cuts through this high-country landscape in the southern Medicine Bow National Forest, marking the watershed of the Wyoming Rockies. This 1961 survey, later updated with woodland and road revisions, centers on the 9,530-foot Singer Peak and the complex drainage system of the Sierra Madre Range. While the terrain is dominated by steep gulches and creeks like Big Sandstone Creek and Dirtyman Fork, human activity is clearly visible in the hydraulic engineering of the Deep Creek Ditch and Belvidere Ditch. These irrigation features, along with scattered sites such as the Johnson Ranch, Stratton Ranch, and an unnamed Mine near the headwaters of Mill Creek, illustrate the region's historical reliance on seasonal ranching and resource extraction.
