1990 Map of C S Ranch

About this map

Chugwater Flats and Iowa Center Flats dominate this landscape, illustrating the broad plateau topographies where Laramie, Platte, and Goshen counties converge. The mapping reveals a sparse ranching economy centered on family-named operations like the C S Ranch and A X Ranch, with life tied closely to the few available water sources. In the southern portion of the quadrangle, Bear Creek cuts through the terrain, while Fox Cr and several scattered Well sites provide the essential infrastructure for livestock in an otherwise arid expanse. The presence of a long Pipeline crossing the western sections highlights the industrial utility of these open spaces, contrasting with the traditional boundaries of the triple-county corner. This 1990 revision shows the persistence of large-scale landholdings in a region where geography and resource management define the settlement pattern.
