1960 Map of Wedding Of The Waters

USGS Topo · Published 1980

About this map

The Wedding of the Waters marks a significant hydrologic transition point in this landscape where the northward-flowing river changes names from the Wind River to the Bighorn River. This 1960 survey, updated with 1975 photographic revisions, documents the corridor of the Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad as it winds through the canyon alongside the water. The boundary of the Wind River Indian Reservation cuts across the southern portion of the map, separating the high plateaus of The Block from the lower river valley. Evidence of local infrastructure includes the Fourmile Bridge and the small settlement of Minnesela, set against a backdrop of complex drainage systems like Buffalo Canyon and Grass Creek Canyon.
