2021 Map of Double L Ranch

About this map

Double L Ranch serves as a central landmark in this high-plains landscape of Platte County, where ranching interests are defined by the winding network of the Richeau Cr drainage. Water management is critical in this environment, as evidenced by the Robert Grant Reservoir and Grant Reservoir, which capture runoff from the N Richeau Cr and S Hunton Cr. The terrain is characterized by a series of significant erosional features such as Walker Draw, L L Draw, and Stewart Draw, which dictate the placement of local thoroughfares like Richeau Rd and Diamond Rd. The presence of Old Hwy 87 in the northeast corner provides a link to older transit corridors through this part of Wyoming, while the intersection of various creeks including Scotch Cr and Tepee Ring Cr illustrates the complex hydrology that supports the region's livestock operations.
