Missouri Valley and Riverton Valley anchor this Fremont County landscape, where an intricate network of irrigation infrastructure supports local agriculture in the high plains. The map details a complex water management system featuring the Pilot Canal and the Riverton-Number 2 Canal, alongside numerous distribution points like Lateral P-31.7 and Lateral P-27.0- B. These man-made channels diverge from natural watercourses such as Fivemile Creek and Sand Gulch, illustrating the 20th-century transformation of the arid Wyoming basin into a productive valley.
