Eden Project.
Klajic, L. A.
英文摘要In the cradle of the Green River Basin, just west of the Wind River Mountains below the South Pass, is the windswept, sandy Eden Valley. Pioneers in the early nineteenth century passed through this arid valley on their way to the milder climates of Oregon and California, stopping only to water their livestock at the Big Sandy Creek and rest for the night. Very few gave the area a second thought until the growth of the ranching industry in the late 1800’s. Even then, the cold, prohibitive climate and desert-like water conditions deterred the less hardy settlers from making their homes permanent. By the late nineteenth century, it was clear that if settlements in the Valley were to prosper, the construction of an irrigation project was necessary. The challenge of making efficient use of what surface water there was in the Eden Valley fell to various private and government agencies, which struggled with overcoming technological and bureaucratic difficulties to enable the Eden Project to successfully irrigate the farmlands of the Eden Valley.
