2015 Map of Bengough Hill

About this map

Bengough Hill stands as a prominent landmark in this high-altitude Wyoming landscape, situated along the county line where the Carbon and Albany borders meet. The map reveals an intricate network of water management features, including the Symes and Deerlove Ditch and several Northrop ditches, which draw from local sources like Cooper Creek. Large impoundments such as Bosler Reservoir and McFadden Reservoir Number 3 define the northern terrain, while the foothills of the Medicine Bow Mountains begin to rise in the southwest corner. The transition from prairie to mountain is marked by drainage patterns from Dutton Creek and the presence of Beaver Ponds, illustrating the complex hydrology essential for ranching and water rights in this arid region.
