1964 Map of Yellowtail Dam

USGS Topo · Published 1983

About this map

Yellowtail Dam and its powerhouse anchor this 1964 survey of the Big Horn area, capturing the early landscape of the Bighorn Canyon National Recreation Area just as federal water projects reshaped the region. The map documents the impoundment of Bighorn Lake, where the Bighorn Canyon is shown at its normal pool elevation of 3640 feet. The settlement of Fort Smith stands near the Yellowtail Afterbay Dam, providing a clear look at the infrastructure of the Missouri River Basin project.
