About this map

Doty Mtn stands as a primary landmark in this high-desert portion of Carbon County, where a complex network of seasonal drainage channels defines the landscape. The hydrography is characterized by several major watercourses, including the winding path of Muddy Cr and the distinct south-flowing Dry Cow Cr in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. These drainages are supported by numerous named washes and draws, such as Chicken Springs Wash and Soap Hole Wash, which highlight the arid, erosion-shaped character of the region.

Topographic prominent points like China Butte and Baldy Butte rise above the surrounding terrain, offering clear reference points for those tracing the historical movement across these townships. The map details the intersection of several land divisions, including t18n r91w and t17n r92w, providing a precise grid for locating specific land parcels and historical landmarks in this sparsely populated Wyoming territory.
