1953 Map of Lewiston Lakes

USGS Topo · Published 1955

About this map

The Sweetwater River winds through this mid-century landscape of south-central Wyoming, carving a deep valley that historically guided western migration. Traces of the Oregon Trail are clearly marked along the northern banks, moving past McLean Meadows and the small bodies of water known as Lewiston Lakes. The area is defined by a network of seasonal water sources and springs essential for high-country livestock grazing, including Diamond Springs, Immigrant Springs, and both Upper Mormon Spring and Lower Mormon Spring. Cultural landmarks like Canoys Cabin and the Yellowstone Cow Camp reflect the ranching heritage of the Antelope Hills region. To the north, Beaver Rim provides a sharp geological boundary, while drainage systems like Strawberry Creek and Willow Creek feed into the primary river valley below.
