2012 Map of Midway

About this map

Midway stands as a focal point in this portion of Laramie County, where a network of county roads converges on the High Plains. This 2012 landscape is defined by its water management and ranching infrastructure, featuring the J R Ranch and essential landmarks such as the Rhoder Windmill and The South Windmill. The drainage system is dominated by the various branches of Little Horse Cr, including Middle Cr, Cow Cr, and N Cr. In the northeastern corner, the Donahue Ditch and Donahue Reservoir illustrate the critical role of irrigation and water storage in this arid environment. The map captures a transition where traditional livestock operations rely on features like Donahue Spring and Bull Spring to sustain the high-altitude prairie economy.
