About this map

Cokeville serves as the focal point for this high-desert valley, where the Bear River and Smiths Fork converge. The landscape is heavily defined by historic transportation corridors, most notably the Emigrant Trl and the Sublette Cutoff, which intersect the eastern hills. These trails, alongside the modern Stock Trl, highlight the area's long-standing role as a gateway for westward movement and ranching commerce.

Water management is central to life in this corner of Lincoln County, evidenced by a dense network of irrigation features such as Covey Canal, Mau Ditch, and Pistol Ditch. The survey details small agricultural settlements like Taylor and local landmarks including the Cokeville Cem and Big Hill. From the Cokeville Municipal Airport to the flats of Sublette Flat, this map documents a rural landscape where historic migration paths meet modern high-plains ranching.
