1958 Map of Tule Butte

About this map

The Emigrant Trail cuts across the high desert floor in the late 1950s, a testament to the historic overland routes that defined this section of the Wyoming frontier. Settlement in this arid landscape is sparse, focused on cattle operations like the Middle Hay Ranch and the Middle Hay Bar X Ranch Road. The drainage patterns of Pacific Creek and Dry Sandy Creek dictate the movement of water and livestock across the basin, while the Blair Archibald Ditch reveals early irrigation efforts designed to sustain life in the sagebrush flats.
