1967 Map of Wilkinson Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1970

About this map

Hams Fork winds through this high-altitude landscape of southwestern Wyoming, providing the primary drainage for a network of mountain streams and irrigation works. In the late 1960s, the southern portion of the map is dominated by the reservoir of Lake Viva Naughton, while the surrounding terrain rises sharply toward the Hams Fork Plateau. The agricultural and ranching history of the area is evident in the extensive irrigation infrastructure, including the Johnson Spencer Ditch, Moore Ditch, and Smith Ditch, which redirect water across the uneven topography of Dempsey Basin. Remote access is marked by the Jack Trail and various jeep trails, reflecting a rugged environment of high ridges like Pink Hill and deep valleys carved by Wilkinson Creek and its tributaries. A Gaging Sta and Footbridge along the fork indicate the active management of these vital water resources.
