About this map

Rattlesnake Ridge anchors this prairie landscape along the border of Weston and Niobrara counties, documenting a specialized water management system in a semi-arid environment. Surveyed mid-century, the map details a network of drainage and transport including a Ditch system and a notable Flume near Stockade Beaver Creek. These features, along with an Artesian Well and various Windmill sites, illustrate the critical importance of water rights and infrastructure for ranching and industry in eastern Wyoming.
