2015 Map of Black Rock South

About this map

The Continental Divide traverses this high-desert landscape in eastern Sweetwater County, marking a fundamental hydraulic break in the Wyoming interior. This 2015 survey documents the high plains environment where natural features like Black Rock and Spring Butte provide vertical relief against the expansive terrain. The southern portion of the map is defined by modern industrial and environmental management, specifically the Jim Bridger Project Evaporation Pond and Potash Wash. Local hydrography is characterized by seasonal and intermittent flows including Black Rock Cr and the ephemeral Ninemile Wash. Grounded in the tradition of Western land management, the map traces the intersection of historic landmarks like Rador Springs with the contemporary utility of the The Meadows area. A network of rural routes, such as CR-15 and Nine Mile Rd, provides the primary access through these townships.
