1951 Map of Bear Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Demorst Ranch sits at the heart of this high-elevation landscape, where the seasonal management of water dictated the patterns of ranching life. Located along the border of Natrona and Carbon Counties, the area is defined by its complex network of water sources, from the isolated Horse Spring and McCune Springs to the vital Anda Reservoir. These points were essential anchors for livestock in a region dominated by drainage systems like Cottonwood Creek and the meandering Bear Spring Creek. To the south, Josendal Springs marks another waypoint for those traveling this country. The primary thoroughfare, Kortes Road, provides the only major access through the winding Canyon topography, linking the high plateaus and remote ranching operations during this mid-century period of development in the Missouri River Basin.
