About this map

Browns Hill rises as the central landmark in this 2017 survey of Wyoming's high-altitude drainage systems. The landscape is defined by an intricate network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including the southern reaches of S Fork Cherokee Cr and the branching paths of Loco Cr and W-Fork Loco Cr. This area is carved by numerous ravines such as Bird Gulch and Coal Gulch, which signal the complex erosional patterns typical of the region.

Logistics and transit through this Carbon County terrain are limited to a sparse network of unpaved tracks. Primary access routes include Browns Hill Rd and McCarty Canyon Rd, which navigate the elevation changes between the peaks of Five Buttes and the lower creek beds like Cottonwood Cr. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System grid, highlighting township and range divisions such as T14N R90W and T15N R89W that govern this section of the American West.
