About this map

Nimmo Ranch and its surrounding pastoral landscape are the focus of this Laramie County survey, documenting the complex network of water management used for ranching in the high plains. The terrain is defined by a series of significant drainage systems including Lewis Draw, Kelley Draw, and Shelton Draw, which feed into larger watercourses like Little Bear Cr and Horse Cr.

Evidence of established livestock operations is seen through named irrigation features such as the Snow Cattle Co Ditch Number 4 and Horse Cr Ditch Number 1. This 2015 study provides a contemporary look at the rural road network, with routes like True Rd and various county roads cutting through the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, illustrating how modern ranching boundaries still adhere to historical township and range divisions.
