About this map

The Shoshone River dictates the landscape of this Park County region, punctuated by mid-century water management infrastructure such as the Corbett Dam and the Corbett Tunnel. This 2015 survey illustrates a rural environment defined by irrigation and drainage, where man-made features like Lateral H-71 and Lateral H-65 intersect with natural drainages including Rough Gulch and Penney Gulch.

Residential and agricultural development is concentrated along a network of named roads like McCullough Peak Rd and Sage Creek Rd, while the eastern portion of the map remains more open, characterized by the Buttercup Reservoir and several named seasonal creek beds like Dry Cr. The intersection of modern naming conventions, such as Nez Perce Dr and Caboose Ln, with the original township and range system provides a clear view of how land use and ranching have evolved in this part of Wyoming.
