About this map

The Oregon Trail cuts through this high desert terrain, following the path of the Sweetwater River in a region defined by historical western migration. Traces of early frontier life appear at St Marys Station (Historic) and the Ellis Ranch, reflecting the era when water sources were the primary drivers of settlement. The landscape is a network of arid drainages and vital water points, including the namesake Barras Springs and Lower Ladysmith Spring.
