2012 Map of Irvine

About this map

The N Platte River winds through this Converse County landscape, anchoring a corridor of historical transit and settlement south of Douglas. The small community of Irvine sits near the riverbanks, joined by the nearby locality of Foster. This 2012 survey illustrates a modern infrastructure layer superimposed on a traditional ranching and riverine environment, where several named waterways including La Bonte Cr, Wagon Hound Cr, and Sand Cr converge toward the main river channel. Transport patterns are defined by the sweep of Orin Way and the local connectivity provided by Irvine Bridge Rd, which links the disparate settlements across the valley floor. In the northwest, the Runden Number 1 Reservoir serves as a notable landmark for water management in this arid high-plains region.
