About this map

Highland Loop Road winds across this high plains landscape in southern Converse County, providing the primary access through a region defined by intermittent drainage systems and ranching infrastructure. The area is characterized by a network of seasonal watercourses, including Lightning Cr and Little Lightning Cr in the south, and Box Cr in the north. A significant point of interest for local history and land use is the Fiddleback Reservoir, which represents the essential water management required for livestock in this arid environment. The terrain is marked by prominent geological depressions like Alexander Draw and Dry Draw, illustrating the erosional patterns of the Wyoming basin. This 2021 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details the township and range boundaries that continue to organize the rural landscape of eastern Wyoming.
