About this map

The county line between Natrona Co and Converse Co divides this high plains landscape, where seasonal drainage patterns and isolated water sources dictated the rhythm of ranching and land use in the mid-1980s. The eponymous Beauchamp Reservoir serves as a central point for water management in an area defined by winding gullies and intermittent streams. Significant topographic landmarks like Eagle Point and a prominent Hill rise above the drainage networks of Jim Draw and Derrick Draw, illustrating the complex erosion patterns typical of the Wyoming basin. This provisional survey captures the region just as modern geographic data was beginning to be formalized from original manuscript drawings, preserving the location of vital watering spots like Sand Springs and the headwaters of Cole Creek, Spring Creek, and Sand Creek before further development or environmental shifts altered these sensitive high-desert watersheds.
