1985 Map of Blue Mesa East

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

Blue Mesa and the prominent Boulder Ridge dominate this central Wyoming landscape along the border of Washakie and Hot Springs counties. Compiled from 1976 aerial photography, the map reveals a complex network of drainage systems including Gooseberry Creek and Little Gooseberry Creek in the north, and Cottonwood Creek in the south. The terrain is deeply incised by features such as Boulder Gulch and Spring Gulch, indicating a highly eroded high-plains environment. A single named water source, Keg Spring, appears within one of these gulches, highlighting the significance of reliable water in this arid region. The boundary between the two counties is clearly delineated as it traverses the high ground of the ridge, offering a specific look at the jurisdictional divisions of the mid-1980s.
