1961 Map of Strouss Hill

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The Overland Trail cuts across the northern landscape of this Wyoming quadrangle, serving as a historic reminder of westward expansion through Carbon and Albany counties. To the west, the Medicine Bow National Forest covers the highland terrain, where isolated water bodies like Lost Lake are tucked into the mountain folds. The area's mid-century ranching and resource economy is visible through dispersed properties such as Manthos Ranch and Dunn Ranch, alongside several oil wells and prospects that dot the drainages of Sevenmile Creek and Fourmile Creek. Water management is prominent in this arid environment, evidenced by the Straus Ditch No 2 and a network of forks feeding into Nellie Cr and Mill Creek. This 1961 field-checked survey reveals a quiet landscape of high-plains topography, defined by landmarks like Strouss Hill and Bunker Hill.
