2012 Map of Cowley

About this map

Cowley and its grid of residential streets like N 1st St W and N 2nd St E anchor this 2012 survey of Big Horn County. The landscape is defined by the drainage systems of Gypsum Cr and Dry Cr, where the notable Petroglyph Canyon suggests a long history of human presence in the basin. Regional infrastructure is well represented, from the North Big Horn County Airport to the numerous irrigation and water management features such as Lateral D-58, Jensons Pond, and Gyp Reservoir. The town's community roots are visible at the Cowley Cem south of the main settlement. The surrounding area maintains a strict agricultural and rural grid, punctuated by Peterson Creek as it winds toward the southern boundary near Co Lane 8.
