1970 Map of Dripping Rock Spring

USGS Topo · Published 1973

About this map

Courthouse Butte rises as a prominent landmark on this high desert landscape along the border of Sweetwater and Carbon counties. Surveyed in the late 1960s, the terrain is defined by a complex network of seasonal water management features essential for livestock or early industrial efforts. Small-scale impoundments like Horse Trap Reservoir, Alkali Res, and Brush Reservoir are scattered across the draws, while Dripping Rock Spring and Hartt Cabin Spring provide critical permanent water sources in an otherwise arid environment. The naming of Hartt Cabin Draw and several Drill Hole locations suggest a history of early homesteading and resource exploration. Significant topographical features like West Flat Top Mtn and the winding West Hangout Wash dictate the movement across this remote stretch of Wyoming.
