2012 Map of Buck Creek

About this map

The high plains drainage of Buck Cr and Bacon Cr dominates this Campbell County landscape, illustrating the intricate network of seasonal prongs and creeks that define the regional geography. This 2012 survey reveals a sparse human footprint, centered primarily on the southern reaches where Keeline Rd traverses the terrain near Black Thunder Cr. The map preserves the specific names of numerous tributaries, such as Haley Prong, Peterson Prong, and Newel Prong, which are essential markers for land management and genealogy in this cattle-ranching territory. The absence of dense infrastructure highlights the continuity of this rural environment, where named watercourses like W Bacon Cr and Big R W Cr serve as the primary landmarks for navigating the expansive Wyoming sagebrush and grassland.
