About this map

Antelope Flat dominates the northern horizon of this High Plains landscape, situated along the border of Campbell Co and Converse Co. In the mid-1980s, this area of Wyoming reflects a specialized agricultural and industrial infrastructure adapted to an arid environment. The map details a complex network of water management features, including the Betty Supply Ditch, several flowing wells, and a siphon, all essential for supporting ranching or local operations far from major population centers.

Drainage patterns are defined by the winding paths of Antelope Creek, Bates Creek, and Sand Creek, which carve through the terrain. A solitary Landing Strip and Coal Draw further illustrate the remote character of the region, where transportation and resource extraction often relied on private or specialized facilities. This survey provides a precise record of how water rights and land use were etched into the Wyoming soil during this era.
