2017 Map of Bengough Hill

About this map

Bengough Hill rises as a prominent landmark in this high-altitude ranching landscape, which straddles the border between Albany and Carbon Counties. The region's history is defined by its sophisticated water management systems, evidenced by an extensive network of irrigation channels like the Symes and Deerlove Ditch and Northrop Ditch Number 5. These structures, alongside several impoundments including McFadden Reservoir Number Three and King Reservoir Number One, supported the livestock industry on the windswept plains beneath the eastern flank of the Medicine Bow Mountains.
