2021 Map of Buck Draw

About this map

Mahoney Lakes anchor the eastern landscape of this high-desert region on the border of Sweetwater and Carbon counties. This 2021 survey reveals a vast, internally draining topography characterized by wide alkaline basins and intermittent water systems. The map traces the transition between Separation Flats and the depressed alkaline terrain of Mud Lake Flats, offering a clear view of the arid hydrology and local road networks like Stratton Rd that navigate this portion of the Red Desert. This specific quadrangle is essential for understanding the modern footprint of land management and transportation in one of Wyoming's most open environments, where the namesake Buck Draw channels seasonal runoff through the southern reaches of the township.
