An underground pipeline conveys water (via gravity) from the Little Tongue River (and two Madison wells lo- cated on the ranch) to a 56 acre-foot lined reservoir (the Horseshoe Reservoir). A more elaborate underground pipeline irrigation sys- tem then conveys water (again via gravity) from the Horseshoe Res- ervoir to both the golf course and hay meadows. A pump has been installed at the Horseshoe Res- ervoir but it is rarely used because the entire irrigation system can run entirely on gravity. Surface water rights appurtenant to the Horseshoe are recorded at the Wyoming State Engineer’s Office.

Ground Water - There are two flowing Madison wells on the ranch, numerous flowing springs and stock tanks dispersed throughout the ranch for stock and wildlife watering. Similar to surface water rights, groundwater rights are recorded at the Wyoming State Engineer’s Of- fice.

Sheridan County is located in the sloping foothills on the eastern side of the majestic Big Horn Mountains in north central Wyoming. At an elevation of nearly 4,000 feet, Sheridan County’s roll- ing grasslands and stream valleys were once the favorite hunting grounds of the Plains Indians. After the Indian Wars of the 1870’s, cattlemen settled in the area to take advantage of the lush, “ natural grass and abundant water along the front range.

Ranches and towns soon replaced the wandering herds of buffalo and the early citizens of Sheri- dan County developed vital, cohesive communities where business thrived. The landscape and history of Sheridan County has a marked effect on the lifestyle and economy of the area.
