About this map

Myers Ranch sits at the heart of this high-plains landscape in Fremont County, where the historic path of the Oregon Trl crosses the southern reaches of the quadrangle. The map documents a complex network of water management and natural drainage essential to ranching in this arid environment. The Sweetwater River winds through the center of the sheet, supported by man-made infrastructure like the National Ditch and Graham Ditch.

Topographically, the area is defined by broad depressions and seasonal watercourses, including the wide expanse of Sweeney Basin and the marshy stretch of Ice Slough. Land management patterns are visible through the cattle-country roads like Graham Rd and Sweeney Ln, which navigate the draws and meadows of the Government Meadows Draw. This modern survey preserves the alignment of the legendary emigrant trail as it passes through the southern basin near Warm Springs Cr.
