2012 Map of Pavillion

About this map

Pavillion serves as the primary hub in this agricultural landscape of Fremont County, defined by an intricate network of irrigation and water management systems. The map details the vital role of the Wyoming Canal, Aragon Ditch, and Johnstown Ditch in transforming the arid terrain of the Kinnear Valley. These engineered waterways, alongside features like the Pilot Drain and Sunnyside Drain, allow for cultivation between landmarks such as Sand Butte and the rising elevation of Big Ridge. To the west, the Wind River snakes through the valley, while the eastern edge of the quadrangle touches the shores of Ocean Lake. Local history is anchored by the Aragon Cem, a notable site for genealogical research situated amidst the rural roads. The grid of service routes, including Service Canal Rd and Sand Butte Rd, highlights the systematic development of the region's ranching and farming infrastructure.
