About this map

Cottonwood Rim dominates the northwestern corner of this High Plains landscape, overlooking a complex drainage network that defines the region's topography. The central portion of the map is shaped by the meandering S Fork Powder River, which receives seasonal flows from several tributaries including Indian Cr and Cottonwood Cr. This area of central Wyoming is characterized by its significant draws and drainage basins, most notably the eponymous Anderson Draw in the northeast.

While the map shows very little modern human infrastructure, the southern boundary is marked by Divide Rd, which runs parallel to the headwaters of N Fork Casper Cr. The cartography captures the intricate contour patterns of the Wyoming basin, where the land transitions between the Powder River and Casper Creek watersheds. The absence of settlements highlights the open-range character of this part of Natrona County during the early twenty-first century.
