1962 Map of Warfield Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

Bear River Divide defines the high-altitude landscape of this Wyoming region, separating the drainage of the Bear River from the tributaries of the Green River system. Recorded during a 1961 aerial survey, the map shows a landscape transitioning from traditional ranching to extractive industry. Evidence of the area's geological history and early economic activity is found at Cavanaugh Peak and the Fossil No 1 site. The human footprint is sparse but specific, centered on the Old Dutch John Ranch and various mining operations, including a Strip Mine and scattered prospect pits. Water sources remain the primary orientation points for navigation, with Warfield Springs and the South Fork Twin Creek cutting through the terrain. The network of unimproved roads and a Jeep Trail suggests a remote, working landscape used by ranchers and miners in the early 1960s.
