About this map

Greys River defines the central corridor of this Lincoln County survey, serving as the primary drainage for a network of mountain tributaries. The river valley is traced by Greys River Rd, the principal artery for movement through this high-elevation landscape. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant creeks that flow into the main channel, including Crow Cr, Willow Cr, and Box Canyon Cr.

A notable landmark in the southwest is Spring Creek Falls, where Spring Cr makes a sharp descent before joining the river system. In the east, the Roaring Fork Lakes and the headwaters of the Roaring Fork suggest a high basin environment. The arrangement of these water features and the presence of logging or forest service roads reflect the typical mountain-valley geography of western Wyoming, where road development follows the natural contours of the river floor.
