2012 Map of Piedmont Reservoir

About this map

Piedmont sits at the center of a complex network of high-desert water management and grazing land in southwestern Wyoming. This 2012 survey illustrates how the landscape around Moslander Ridge is defined by a series of small, catch-basin reservoirs such as Piedmont Reservoir, Little Piedmont Reservoir, and Guild Reservoir. These water features, alongside seasonal drainages like Muddy Cr and Silver Springs Cr, highlight the essential infrastructure required for ranching and resource management in Uinta County. Significant terrain landmarks such as Horseshoe Bend and Twomile Hollow provide orientation across the sagebrush-covered draws. The local road network, including the Piedmont Aspen Rd and Altamont Rd, traces the movement between these isolated watering holes and the historic settlement site, reflecting the region's long-standing reliance on its limited water sources.
