2010 Map of Chicken Creek SW

About this map

Vermillion Creek meanders through this high-desert landscape in southern Sweetwater County, Wyoming, just north of the Colorado border. The drainage network is clearly defined by several significant seasonal watercourses, including Granary Draw, Horseshoe Wash, and Alkali Creek, which characterize the arid terrain of this region. Human activity is evidenced by industrial and transit infrastructure, most notably the Myers Mine located near the southern boundary. This site and the nearby Hiawatha Rd indicate the area's continued role in resource extraction and regional connectivity. The map provides a detailed view of the section lines and topography during the first decade of the 21st century, showing how the land is partitioned for grazing or mineral interests while remaining largely undeveloped.
