1951 Map of Y U Bench NE

USGS Topo · Published 1953

About this map

The Greybull River valley serves as a vital corridor for irrigation and settlement in this Wyoming landscape, mapped just as post-war water development programs were reshaping the Missouri River Basin. The intricate network of gravity-fed water systems, including the Meeteetse Ditch, Old Smith Ditch, and Burlington Canal, illustrates the heavy reliance on mountain runoff to transform the arid flats of Y U Bench and Emblem Bench into productive ranchland.
