About this map

Pathfinder Dam stands as the engineering centerpiece of this mid-century survey, managing the waters of the North Platte River where it carves through steep canyon walls. The reservoir, part of a massive early 20th-century irrigation project, is surrounded by the Pathfinder National Wildlife Refuge, which spans the rugged transition from the water's edge to the high peaks of Pathfinder Mountain. The landscape is defined by its water sources, from the steady flow of Little Canyon Creek to isolated landmarks like Swede Spring and Poison Spring.
