2012 Map of Chicken Creek SW
USGS Topo · Published 2012About this map
The Vermillion Cr and its network of dry drainages define this stretch of the high desert along the Wyoming-Colorado border. Centered on a sparsely populated landscape of ranching and natural gas infrastructure, the map highlights the Erickson-Kent Ranch in the northwestern quadrant as a primary waypoint in an area otherwise dominated by seasonal watercourses like Alkali Cr and Granary Draw. Transportation through this arid basin relies on Hiawatha Rd, which cuts across the southern portion of the sheet toward Horseshoe Wash. This 2012 survey illustrates the modern configuration of access roads and land use in a region where geography is dictated by the availability of water and the reach of remote cattle operations.
