1951 Map of Split Rock

About this map

Sweetwater River irrigation and high-desert ranching define this central Wyoming landscape during the early 1950s. The map illustrates a network of water management essential for livestock, featuring the Mc Intosh Ditch and Cranner Ditch which divert water to family-run operations like the Mc Intosh Ranch and Split Rock Ranch. Settlement patterns here are tied closely to these water sources and the sheltering terrain of Beaton Pocket, while the presence of the CCC Camp (Aban'd) and Grieves Homestead (Aban'd) suggests the shifting nature of land use in the mid-20th century.
