2015 Map of Chicken Creek East

About this map

Kinney Rim dominates this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County, forming a massive natural escarpment that dictates the flow of ephemeral drainages across the plateau. The terrain is defined by the sharp vertical relief of the rim, where the headwaters of Chicken Cr and Alkali Cr emerge from the western slopes. These watercourses represent critical seasonal resources in an otherwise arid environment, supplemented by groundwater points like Carson Spring. Navigation through this isolated corridor relies on unpaved access routes such as Blm-4407, which connects the high ridges to the surrounding basins. The map illustrates a stark, open landscape where topography is the primary feature, reflecting the land use patterns typical of Wyoming's public lands under the Bureau of Land Management.
