2017 Map of Burlington Lake

About this map

Burlington Lake and the drainages of the Casper Creek system anchor this high-plains landscape in Natrona County. The map details a region defined by its seasonal watercourses and drainage patterns, including Middle Fork Casper Cr and N Fork Casper Cr, which carve through the terrain alongside features like Selby Draw and Tie Bridge Gulch. The sparse settlement pattern is concentrated at Petrie and Bucknum, points along the transportation corridor that traverses the southern half of the quadrangle. High-altitude cattle country and sagebrush steppe are implied by the presence of Co Rd 126 and the vast stretches of sectioned land, reflecting the enduring legacy of the Public Land Survey System across the Wyoming basin. This document provides a clear view of the rural infrastructure and natural landmarks essential for navigating and managing this part of the state.
