2011 Map of Box Elder Draw

About this map

Hanging Woman Creek winds through this section of the Wyoming-Montana borderlands, defining a landscape of deep draws and ephemeral prongs. In the early 21st century, this area remains characterized by its complex drainage network, where the Schoolhouse Prong and Grenell Prong feed into the larger basin of Seventysix Creek. The terrain is marked by significant topographical landmarks such as King Draw and the North Prong Box Elder Draw, reflecting the naming conventions of early ranching and surveying efforts in Sheridan County. Infrastructure is limited to a few arterial routes like Passaic Rd, which skirts the southeastern corner of the map. This survey provides a record of the watershed patterns before further development, tracing the paths of Deep Creek and the South Fork North Buffalo Creek across the high plains.
