2014 Map of Wade

About this map

Wade serves as a central point along the path of Us-310 in this Carbon County region, where the landscape is defined by the elevation of Pryor Mountain and the intricate drainage of the Bridger Creek system. The map details an environment of managed water and complex topography, featuring the Depression Reservoir and the Mutual Ditch, which indicate the importance of water rights and irrigation in this high-plains setting. Watercourses like S Fork Bridger Cr and Jack Cr carve through the terrain, punctuated by landforms such as Castle Coulee. This 2014 survey documents the modern layout of the road network, including Pryor Mountain Rd and Cottonwood Rd, showing how transportation routes are dictated by the natural draws and ridges of the Montana backcountry.
