2012 Map of Bader Draw

About this map

Holland Winter Camp and Seaman Ranch represent the sparse human footprint in this high-desert landscape of Washakie County. The terrain is defined by complex drainage systems and the prominent Black Mountain, where water management is critical for the local ranching economy. This is evidenced by a network of catchments including Black Mountain Reservoir, V-W Reservoir, and Holland Reservoir. Seasonal watercourses like Nowater Cr, Buck Cr, and Mud Cr carve through the land, illustrating the hydrologic challenges of the region. Access to these remote sites is provided by primary ranching routes such as Nowater Rd and the aptly named Devils Slide Rd. The map also captures specific topographical features like Bader Draw and the uniquely identified Worland Nowood Draw Number 4, which mark the arid draws and washes of the Wyoming interior.
