2021 Map of Baker Spring

About this map

Belle Fourche River meanders through this section of Campbell County, serving as the primary drainage for a landscape defined by seasonal draws and springs. The area is characterized by its traditional livestock grazing lands, evidenced by the network of unpaved access routes like Clarkelen Rd and Todd Rd. Water remains the most critical feature in this arid environment, with named landmarks such as Baker Spring, All Night Cr, and Soft Water Draw marking essential locations for local land management and historical navigation. These features, along with the distinctively named Rocky Butte Gulch, illustrate the local vernacular of the Wyoming plains and the way topographic markers have historically delineated ranching territories and property lines across the various township and range divisions.
