2021 Map of Bucklin Reservoirs

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

The Oregon Trl and California Emigrant Rd converge in this high-plains landscape, marking the enduring paths of 19th-century westward migration across the Wyoming interior. This 2021 survey documents the intersection of historical transit and modern ranching infrastructure along the boundary of Natrona and Carbon Counties. The Sweetwater River meanders through the northern section, feeding irrigation systems like the Turkey Track Ditch and the Y-Z Ditch which support the arid surroundings. Cultural features are defined by water management and topography, from the prominent Sweetwater Rocks to the namesake Bucklin Reservoirs and the alkaline waters of Soda Lake. Genealogists and historians can trace the relationship between these ancient wagon trails and established water sources like Crane Reservoir and Whiskey Cr that have sustained this remote high-desert region for generations.
