1960 Map of Yoder

USGS Topo · Published 1962

About this map

The high plains of Goshen County are defined here by a sophisticated irrigation network vital to the region's agricultural life in the early 1960s. Yoder stands as the primary rail-side settlement, situated along the Union Pacific line which cuts diagonally across the landscape. The reliance on water management is evident through the extensive system of the Fort Laramie Canal, the Goshen Hole Main Ditch, and the Cherry Creek Lateral. These man-made watercourses, along with the Perchal Drain, transformed the arid terrain surrounding landmarks like Greasewood Ranch.
