1951 Map of Y U Bench NW

USGS Topo · Published 1952

About this map

Yu Bench dominates this high-plains landscape in Park County, showing the region as it was surveyed in the early 1950s. The map illustrates a transition from the elevated bench land down into the Dry Creek Basin, where the drainage network includes the North Fork Dry Creek and South Fork Dry Creek. Evidence of early water management is found in the northwestern corner with the Wiley Canal (Aban'd), a reminder of the ambitious irrigation projects common to this arid portion of the Missouri River Basin development area.
