2012 Map of Eden Reservoir West

About this map

The California-Oregon Trl cuts across the northern landscape of this Sweetwater County survey, a modern-day reminder of the pioneer migrations that once traversed this high desert. Centered on the vital waters of the Big Sandy River, the map captures a network of irrigation and water management essential to the region's agricultural history. Both the Big Sandy Reservoir and Eden Reservoir anchor the local geography, linked by a systematic grid of roads like Farson 4th Rd N and Farson 1st Rd E that support the local ranching community. To the west, Haystack Butte stands as a prominent natural landmark, while the southern reaches are defined by the confluence of Pacific Cr and Little Sandy Cr. The infrastructure shown reflects a late 20th-century development of the Farson-Eden area, balancing historic trail routes with the utilitarian needs of modern water storage and land access.
