This area was opened to homesteading in 1941 upon completion of the Gibson Reservoir and Greenfield Irrigation District Project. The property has a right to twenty-eight plus acre/feet of water annually. Two excellent wells are on the property. Five pastures are fenced with sheep-tight electric wire in association with a 1400 square foot animal shelter automatically watered from a well integral with a 16'x24' plumbed work shop on a concrete pad.
