Date Created Date of creation of the resource. 1949 Description An account of the resource Collection of photographs of the Wyoming Blizzard of 1949. In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. The U.S. Army Air Base in Casper, Wyoming opened in 1942 to train bomber crews. Photographs from this collection can be found in the Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection accessible through the Casper College Western History Center. The Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection includes hundreds of photographs, articles, correspondence, and other documentary items pertaining to Wyoming history from 1920-1980 and Chuck Morrison's life, career as Wyoming State Representative, writings, photography, and military service in WWII.

In January 1949, one of the worst recorded blizzards in southeastern Wyoming buried many areas in and between Casper, Douglas, Laramie, and Cheyenne in 10-12 feet of snow. Large numbers of wild and stock animals were lost and hundreds of people were stranded in their homes, businesses, and cars. Several people died or were injured from exposure or accidents in the below freezing temperatures. The Casper Army Air Base launched operations "Operation Hay-lift" and "Pitchfork" in an effort to use planes and other military vehicles to deliver 300 tons of hay and fodder to the remaining starving animals during the following six weeks. The Casper Army Air Base along with several other out-of-state military forces also assisted in digging out roads with the overburdened highway department crews, as well as contributing to relief and evacuation efforts. The U.S. Army Air Base in Casper, Wyoming opened in 1942 to train bomber crews. Photographs from this collection can be found in the Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection accessible through the Casper College Western History Center. The Charles "Chuck" Morrison Collection includes hundreds of photographs, articles, correspondence, and other documentary items pertaining to Wyoming history from 1920-1980 and Chuck Morrison's life, career as Wyoming State Representative, writings, photography, and military service in WWII.
