Big Piney serves as the focal point for this high-desert landscape in Sublette County, where the sprawling drainage networks of the Green River Basin define the local topography. The map illustrates a complex hydraulic environment dominated by North Piney Cr, Middle Piney Cr, and South Piney Cr, which meander through a series of wide draws and swales. The presence of Sixty-Seven Reservoir and landforms like D B Budd Butte and Sixty-Seven Butte highlight the ranching heritage of the region, where water management is critical to the local economy. Genealogists will find the Plainview Cem south of the main settlement particularly noteworthy. The grid of rural roads, including Middle Piney Rd and Star Corral Rd, provides a clear view of the modern land divisions and access routes within these historic townships.
