Kelch v. Courson

The ranch consists of 80 acres of patented land and approximately 25 sections of leased land. Running through the patented land and past the ranch headquarters is a wash known as Walnut Grove Creek running generally from the northeast to the southwest. One of its tributaries lying north of the headquarters is a creek or gully which is called Fig Spring Canyon. Northeast of the ranch headquarters is a patented mining claim consisting of 20 acres and known as Wild Cow No. 9. The Walnut Grove wash runs through this mining claim as does its tributary coming in from the northwest. Further south and closer to the headquarters is Silver Creek mining claim through the length of which runs the Walnut Grove Creek.
