1970 Map of McPherson Springs
USGS Topo · Published 1973About this map
The Little Snake River carves through this high-desert boundary between Wyoming and Colorado, defining a landscape shaped by water scarcity and resource extraction. The 1970 field data reveals a reliance on isolated water sources like McPherson Springs, the Lower Soap Holes, and ephemeral catchments such as Clay Flat Reservoir. These points were critical anchors for the area's stockmen, connected by a network of established Stock Trails that navigate the varied terrain of the Cherokee Basin and the eroded slopes of the Poison Buttes.
