About this map

Saint Stephens and Arapahoe sit at the heart of this landscape where the Little Wind River and Pope Agie River meet. The region is defined by an intricate network of irrigation channels, including the Sub-Agency Ditch, Lefthand Ditch, and Mission Ditch, which reflect the long-standing agricultural history of the Wind River Reservation. To the south, the terrain transitions into the dry, dissected topography of Preacher Draw and Sand Gulch, highlighting the contrast between the fertile river bottoms and the surrounding high desert.

Local history is preserved in the location of the Arapahoe Cem and Arapahoe Catholic Cem, providing essential points of reference for genealogists. Industrial activity is noted at Riverton Oil in the northeast, while the Gustin Number 2 Reservoir anchors the southwestern corner. Named roads like Rendezvous Rd and Goes In Lodge Rd trace the movement of people across this tribal landscape, connecting mission sites and small settlements to the river systems.
