About this map

Killpecker Cr winds through this arid expanse of Sweetwater County, shaping the drainage patterns of a landscape defined by sharp topographic relief and deep incisions. The area is characterized by significant natural landmarks such as Cedar Canyon in the north and the twisting paths of Crooked Canyon and Long Canyon. These features illustrate the erosion-driven geography of the Wyoming high desert, where water has carved permanent paths through the sedimentary layers. Human presence is primarily indicated by a sparse network of thoroughfares, including Chilton Rd and Co Rd 17, which provide access through the vast public land survey sections. This 2021 survey by the United States Geological Survey offers a clear view of the township and range divisions, showing the intersection of natural watercourses and the grid system of the West.
