2017 Map of Cooper Lake North

About this map

Lookout sits at a critical junction in this part of Albany County, where the railroad corridor and highway cut diagonally across the high plains landscape. The drainage of Meiser Cr defines much of the northern topography, while the southern reaches are dominated by the expanse of Cooper Lake. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a managed water system designed for the arid environment, featuring the Homer Ditch and Cavender Reservoir. The intersection of modern infrastructure and natural watercourses like Dutton Cr reveals the spatial organization of ranching and transport in the region. Local travel is marked by named arteries such as Round Top Rd and Sand Hills Rd, which navigate the subtle ridges and basins characteristic of the Wyoming interior.
