1953 Map of Barras Springs

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Oregon Trail cuts a historic path across this high plains landscape, paralleling the serpentine course of the Sweetwater River as it flows past Beaver Rim. This mid-century survey documents a region defined by early westward migration and sparse ranching, anchored by the St Marys Station (Historic) and the Ellis Ranch. Evidence of irrigation efforts is visible through the Arnold Ditch No 1 and Brown Ditch, which divert water to the river's adjacent flats.
