1968 Map of Eden Reservoir West

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

The Emigrant Trail and its Sublette Cutoff slice through this high desert terrain in the late 1960s, marking a landscape defined by historic migration and modern water management. The irrigation network, essential for life in the Eden Valley, is mapped in detail through the Means Canal, West Side Lateral, and Eden Canal. These waterways flow from the Big Sandy Reservoir and Eden Reservoir, feeding the arid Sublettes Flat. Land use is concentrated around these water sources and the Big Sandy River, while prominent natural landmarks like Haystack Butte provide orientation points in the open country. Local transportation is recorded via the Lincoln Sweetwater Road and Old Luman Road, alongside a remote Landing Strip, illustrating the infrastructure required to support this ranching and reservoir district.
