1990 Map of Dickinson Hill

About this map

The Goshen Hole Rim forms a dramatic geographical boundary across this section of eastern Wyoming, separating the elevated Slater Flats from the lower basin of Goshen Hole. This 1990 revision, based on surveys dating back to 1958, illustrates a landscape defined by water management and ranching operations. The Dickinson Hill promontory stands as a central landmark above the rim, while the sparse settlement pattern is anchored by locations such as the Baker Ranch and Swan. The map reveals the infrastructure of the high plains, including a Pumping Station and an extensive Pipeline system, alongside natural water sources like Mud Springs and Forney Springs. The border between Platte and Goshen counties bisects the eastern portion of the sheet, cutting through the drainage of Forney Draw.
