About this map

Green River flows through the southwestern corner of this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County, anchoring a terrain defined by complex drainage systems and intermittent waterways. The namesake Austin Ranch sits just north of the river, representing a localized hub of activity within a vast network of canyons and draws. This 2015 survey illustrates how contemporary infrastructure like Blue Rim Rd and CR-14 provides access across the arid plains to essential water management features such as Blue Rim Reservoir Number 1.

The geography is marked by deep erosional features including Scott Canyon and Twentyfive Draw, which channel seasonal runoff toward the primary river basin. Landforms like Manns Flat and Skunk Canyon reflect the specific localized naming conventions of the high country. These features, along with various washes like Chris Wash and Fill Wash, demonstrate the hydrological patterns that dictate movement and land use in this part of Wyoming.
