2012 Map of Arminto

About this map

The high plains of Natrona County converge at Arminto, a small outpost defined by the intersection of remote ranching routes and water management systems. In this arid landscape, the drainage patterns of Red Cr and Alkali Cr dictate the placement of human activity, including the Carlson Ranch. The map reveals a sophisticated network of water storage, with Jackpot Reservoir in the northeast, Bad Water Creek Reservoir near the town site, and Garrison Reservoir to the southwest. These features highlight the importance of water security for the livestock operations that dominate this segment of the Wyoming interior. Transportation is focused on three primary corridors: Buffalo Creek Rd, Lost Cabin Rd, and Arminto Rd, which provide the essential links between these isolated ranching hubs and the surrounding range.
