1957 Map of Currant Creek Ranch

About this map

Currant Creek Ranch sits at the northern end of this high-altitude landscape, where the high-plains geography of Sweetwater County, Wyoming meets the Richards Mountains along the Utah border. The 1950s terrain is defined by a dense network of seasonal water sources and livestock-supporting features, such as Sugarloaf Reservoir and Greenhough Place. The drainage patterns of Currant Creek and Middle Marsh Creek reveal a reliance on dispersed springs, including Louis George Spring and Richards Spring, which were vital for ranching operations in this arid region. High ridges like Hogback Ridge and Flat Iron Ridge segment the territory, while the Canyon Road Trail and various jeep trails provide the only access through the southern gaps. The survey captures the isolation of the Daggett County line before modern development, preserving the locations of remote landmarks like Hawks Nest and Minnies Gap.
