The Meriden settlement and the Meriden P.O. anchor this 1960s study of the high plains along the border of Goshen and Laramie Counties. This is a landscape defined by an extensive network of irrigation infrastructure designed to sustain cattle ranching in a semi-arid environment. Named systems like the Springvale No 1 Ditch and the Herrick Ditch divert water from Horse Creek and Little Horse Creek to support numerous family-run operations including the Petsch Ranch, Hunter Ranch, and Morrie Ranch.
