About this map

The high plains of Converse County are defined here by the Sage Creek Divide, a prominent ridge separating the intricate drainage networks of the region. To the north, the S Fork Dry Fork Cheyenne River and Phillips Cr carve through the landscape, while Sage Cr and the S Fork Sage Cr flow toward the south and east. This 2015 survey illustrates a sparsely populated ranching environment where landmark features like Red Butte and Coal Hill serve as primary navigational points.

Transportation is limited to a few rugged corridors, most notably 55 Ranch Rd, which traverses the western sections of the quadrangle. The small settlement area of Blizzard Heights stands as the primary residential cluster in this vast expanse of the Powder River Basin. Genealogists and land historians can use the township and range boundaries, such as t36n r75w, to precisely locate historical land holdings and grazing allotments in this corner of Wyoming.
