About this map

Betty Reservoir serves as a focal point in this high-plains landscape where the border between Campbell and Converse counties meets. The drainage patterns of this arid region are clearly defined by the branching networks of Antelope Creek, Bates Creek, and Sand Creek, which carve through the plateau. The presence of Antelope Flat and named landmarks like Lone Tree suggest a terrain once utilized for open-range grazing and early ranching ventures.

Modern utility infrastructure is documented through the inclusion of an Underground Pipeline and Pipe Line, indicating the mid-century industrial development that overlay the traditional livestock economy. Local nomenclature is preserved through features such as Haefele Draw and Johnson Draw, while the complex hydrology of the area is further evidenced by Bear Creek, Lonetree Creek, and Robertson Creek, which converge in this high-altitude basin.
