About this map

The Medicine Bow National Forest occupies the northeast corner of this high-altitude landscape, where the headwaters of numerous creeks begin their descent through the central Wyoming backcountry. This area is a complex meeting point of jurisdictional boundaries, where Natrona, Converse, Carbon, and Albany counties converge amidst a network of drainage systems. The prominent Dugway Rim forms a striking geographic divide in the center of the quadrangle, overlooking the southern basins fed by the N Fork Little Medicine Bow River.

A network of local routes like Upper Deer Creek Rd and Balsh Rd provide access to this isolated terrain, which remains largely defined by its natural water sources and topographical features. Smaller landmarks like Squaw Spring and Brennan Draw highlight the essential relationship between the geography and the water that sustains it, while the winding courses of Deer Cr and Sandell Cr dictate the movement of the local road system.
