1970 Map of Webb Draw

About this map

The Old Fort Bonneville Site anchors the southeastern corner of this landscape, marking a historical crossroads where the Green River meets Prairie Creek. In 1970, this region of Sublette County showcases a transition from the elevated Beaver Ridge in the north down toward the alluvial expanses of Forty Rod Flat. The river's winding course is mirrored by local water management and ranching infrastructure, including the Scott Ditch and numerous gaging stations. Evidence of local settlement and community history appears in the Wilhelm Cem and the State Fish Hatchery located east of Forty Rod Road. Terrain features like Ryegrass and the Aspen Ridge Pit Reservoir indicate a land shaped by both natural drainage from Webb Draw and intentional water storage for agricultural use.
