2021 Map of Sodergreen Lake

About this map

The eastern slopes of the Medicine Bow Mountains descend toward a complex network of water management features in Albany County. The landscape is defined by the massive Lake Hattie Reservoir and the smaller Sodergreen Lake, which serve as hubs for an extensive system of irrigation and transport. A web of man-made waterways, including the Lake Hattie Supply Canal, Pioneer Canal, and multiple numbered ditches like Riverside Ditch Number 1, reflects the area's intensive ranching and agricultural development. The Laramie River winds through the southern portion of the sheet, flanked by family-named infrastructure and local landmarks such as Sheep Mtn and Moonshine Gulch. The map also captures the edge of the Medicine Bow National Forest, illustrating the boundary where protected wilderness meets the high-plains water economy.
