2021 Map of Dugway Rim

About this map

The Medicine Bow National Forest occupies the northeastern corner of this landscape, where the high-altitude hydrology of Wyoming begins its descent toward the valleys. Central to the map's character is the Dugway Rim, a significant geological transition that defines the local drainage patterns. Water is the primary architect here, with the N Fork Little Medicine Bow River and Little Medicine Bow River carving through the southern reaches. The presence of Squaw Spring and several seasonal creeks like Bates Cr and Deer Cr suggests a region historically vital for livestock and early rangeland management. This modern survey shows a network of remote roads including Upper Deer Creek Rd and Balsh Rd, which follow the contours of the terrain to provide access through this high-plains environment where Natrona, Converse, Carbon, and Albany counties converge.
