2021 Map of Carbon

About this map

Carbon sits at the northeastern edge of this Wyoming landscape, a location defined by its high-altitude ridges and numerous water-catchment basins. The terrain is marked by a series of prominent elevations including Simpson Ridge, Hi Allen Ridge, and the Number 5 Ridge, which rise above a network of drainages such as Carbon Cr and Percy Cr. The presence of the Carbon Cem serves as a quiet marker of the community's history in this high desert environment. Water management is a primary feature of the area's development, evidenced by the distribution of several named bodies like Sixmile Reservoir, Irene Reservoir, and the evocatively named Fiddlers Green Reservoir. Natural springs, including Rolling Springs and Threemile Spring, dot the draws and gaps between the ridges, supporting the varied topography of the Sand Hills and Jackson Draw.
