2014 Map of Dry Fork Ridge

About this map

Dry Fork Ridge dominates this area of Phillips County, where the high-plains landscape is defined by an intricate network of coulees and seasonal water storage. The topography is shaped by the Dry Fork Cr and its tributaries, including W Fork Dry Fork Cr and Beauchamp Cr. Local land use is evidenced by the numerous small impoundments scattered across the terrain, such as Dusky Reservoir, Happy Gang Reservoir, and Holzhey Reservoir. These features suggest a landscape managed for livestock or water conservation in a semi-arid environment. Resource extraction is also present through industrial labels like Buckhorn Pit and the Turkey Track Pit, while the sole primary thoroughfare, Dry Fork Rd, provides the main access through the township and range sections.
