About this map

The Blacks Fork Sheep Trl cuts across the center of this high plains landscape in Uinta County, marking a historic route for livestock movement in Wyoming. In this arid terrain, water sources define the geography, from the eponymous Moslander Reservoir to the secluded Seventeen Spring and Cold Springs. The map illustrates a network of ephemeral and perennial drainages such as Van Tassel Cr and W Muddy Cr, which carve through features like Twomile Draw and Beaver Dam Hollow.

Strategic landmarks such as Twenty Knoll and Twentyone Grove provide rare points of orientation in a region largely defined by its rangeland character. Modern access is represented by Co RD 167 and Co RD 27, yet the persistence of livestock-related infrastructure, including Vacher Reservoir, underscores the long-standing agricultural and grazing legacy of the southwestern Wyoming frontier during the early twenty-first century.
