1911 Map of Oregon Basin

USGS Topo · Published 1975

About this map

Oregon Basin Bird Reservation dominates the northern landscape of this Wyoming territory, centered around Loch-Katrine and the ephemeral waters of the basin. The 1910-1911 survey work by C.C. Gardner reveals a transition in early irrigation efforts, specifically noting the Wiley Canal (Abandoned) which once sought to divert water across this arid high-desert terrain. In the southern reaches, the Greybull River cuts a prominent path near Sleeper's Ranch, providing a rare reliable water source for early settlers and ranchers in this part of Park County.
