1964 Map of Two Buttes Reservoir

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

The New Fork River winds through the high desert landscape of Sublette County, defining the agricultural and industrial character of the region in the early 1960s. This survey illustrates a complex network of irrigation infrastructure essential for ranching, including the Paradise Ditch, Griffin No 2 Ditch, and Bertram Ditch. These waterways contrast with the arid prominence of The Mesa to the northwest. Land use in this era is further evidenced by the Blue Rim Drift Fence, a significant pastoral boundary, and several gas wells indicating the area's energy development. Local topography is shaped by numerous ephemeral drainages such as Lovatt Draw and Alkali Creek, while the Two Buttes Reservoir stands as a primary water storage feature in the northern portion of the quadrangle.
