1970 Map of Big Piney West

About this map

The high plains of Sublette County appear here as a landscape defined by historic western migration and sophisticated 20th-century water management. The legacy of the westward expansion is etched into the terrain by the Emigrant Trail and the Lander Cutoff, which traverse the open country alongside newer infrastructure. Water remains the central character of the region, illustrated by a complex network of irrigation works including the East Star Corral Reservoir Distribution Canal and numerous family-named channels like the Mc Ninch Ditch and Ex Pence Ditch.
