1970 Map of Trabing

About this map

Bozeman Trail history intersects with the high plains of Johnson County on this survey, highlighting the frontier past of Northern Wyoming. The landscape is defined by the convergence of the North Fork Crazy Woman Creek and South Fork Crazy Woman Creek, a site of regional conflict marked by the Crazy Woman Battlefield Historical Marker. This area, once a critical corridor for pioneers and military movement, is anchored by the small settlement of Trabing and the Bozeman Trail Historical Marker. The 1970 landscape also reflects the agricultural necessities of the high desert, showing complex irrigation systems like the Mitchell and Long Ditch and Smith Ditch that draw from the Crazy Woman Creek drainage to water the Colorado Flats.
