Thunder Basin National Grassland dominates this corner of Wyoming, where the settlement of Bill serves as a lone outpost along the eastern edge. The landscape is defined by its drainage patterns, with numerous ephemeral channels like Shelden Draw, Poison Draw, and Mikes Draw etching through the high plains. The presence of Rice Reservoir and Thomas Reservoir highlights the critical role of water management in this arid ranching environment, providing essential catchment points for seasonal runoff from Dry Cr. Development is sparse, concentrated primarily near Bill with local roads such as Opal St and Starla St providing access to this section of Converse County. The map captures the intersection of public land management and the rugged cattle country characteristic of the region.
