1951 Map of Y U Bench NE

About this map

The Greybull River valley carves through the high desert of the Bighorn Basin, revealing an intricate network of early 1950s irrigation and ranching infrastructure. This landscape is defined by its massive plateaus, specifically Y U Bench and Emblem Bench, which tower over the river bottom. The survival of local agriculture at this time was dependent on complex water diversions, including the Burlington Canal, Farmers Canal, and the Meeteetse Ditch.
