2012 Map of Moneta

About this map

Moneta serves as the central hub of this Fremont County landscape, situated at the junction of several critical backcountry routes. The settlement's connection to the surrounding high desert is traced through roads like Castle Garden Rd and Buck Camp Rd, which snake through the arid terrain of Alkali Flats and the Moneta Hills. This 2012 survey illustrates the vital importance of water management in the Wyoming basin, documented by Graham Reservoir and Frenchie Reservoir, alongside the intermittent drainage systems of Poison Cr and Moneta Draw. Remote family-named holdings such as Kanson Ranch and Webb Ranch reflect the enduring ranching tradition of the region, where life is dictated by the availability of water and the rugged network of state and local roads.
