2015 Map of Bowen Flat

About this map

The Cheyenne River carves a winding path through the northern reaches of this Niobrara County landscape, setting a contrast to the high, arid plains of the surrounding region. The terrain is defined by a network of seasonal watercourses and topographic landmarks like Chimney Rock Butte and the namesake Bowen Flat. This modern survey illustrates the persistent ranching and water-management patterns of eastern Wyoming, highlighted by the Rumney Number 2 Reservoir and Rumney Number 3 Reservoir. Local transit and land access are anchored by Greasewood Ridge Rd and Redbird Rd, which navigate around a complex series of drainages including Old Woman Cr and Lance Cr. The map provides a clear look at the public land survey system divisions across Culligans Flats, marking the enduring boundaries of the American West.
