1951 Map of Sucker Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Fifteenmile Creek meanders across this High Plains landscape, marking the boundary between Big Horn Co and Washakie Co in north-central Wyoming. The 1951 field check reveals a network of intermittent drainages like Dry Cottonwood Creek and Reservoir Creek that define the local topography. Human presence is sparse, centered on the Sucker Dam and evidence of previous ranching or homesteading efforts. The notation of the Rex Mueller Cabin (Aban'd) near Timber Creek provides a specific point of interest for local historians, indicating a transition in land use or occupancy at the time of the survey. To the south, Crooked Creek and a simple Corral highlight the area's primary connection to livestock grazing within the Missouri River Basin development program.
