About this map

The Powder River carves a winding path through the western edge of this Campbell County landscape, defining the local drainage patterns as it meets tributaries like Wild Horse Cr. This 2015 survey reveals a terrain shaped by water management and ranching history, with numerous named catchments such as Robinson Reservoir and Joe Creek Reservoir dotting the arid draws. Near the river, the Arvada Cem remains a critical landmark for genealogists and local historians tracking early settlement in the region.

The map is dominated by the complex drainage network of the Wild Horse Creek system, including the N Prong Wild Horse Cr and Middle Prong Wild Horse Cr. Prominent geological features like Tincom Butte rise above the surrounding draws, including Robinson Draw and Campbell Draw, which have long served as natural corridors for transit. Modern infrastructure, including Us 14-16 and the Arvada-Gillette Rd, bisects the area, following the legacy of older trails through this high plains environment.
