About this map

The Bear River winds through this high valley in Lincoln County, creating a complex network of oxbows and wetlands that defined the local geography during the 1980s. Near the western edge, the small settlement of Beckwith is situated along the transport corridor, while Pixley sits further north, anchoring a landscape shaped by early water management systems. A series of man-made waterways, including the Mau Canal, Covey Canal, and Pixley Ditch, illustrate the importance of irrigation to this arid mountain region. To the east, the terrain rises sharply into the prominent elevations of Stoffer Ridge and Boulder Ridge. Notable landmarks like The Big Knob and the road identified as Mc Farland provide specific points of interest for those tracing the history of land use and transit in the Bear River Valley.
