Dutch Nick Flat and the surrounding high plains of Washakie County are defined by a complex network of seasonal drainage and early irrigation efforts. The landscape is carved by the Middle Fork Fifteenmile Cr and the S Fork Fifteenmile Cr, which wind through terrain marked by distinctive landmarks like Paradise Alley and East Ridge. This 2021 topographic survey illustrates the enduring relationship between water and land in the Wyoming desert, where the natural flow of Gooseberry Cr is supplemented by man-made infrastructure such as Perkins Ditch and Steele Ditch. Navigating this territory relies on a sparse network of ranching and access routes, including the descriptively named Squaw Teats Rd and Dutch Nick Rd, which cross the boundary into Hot Springs County near Murphy Draw.
