2012 Map of Eightmile Draw

About this map

Poison Spider Rd cuts through the high plains of Natrona County, following the natural drainage patterns of this arid landscape. The area is defined by an intricate network of intermittent waterways, including the winding Poison Spider Cr and the central depression of Eightmile Draw. These drainages represent the vital hydrology of the region, where water flow from S Fork Casper Cr and Coyote Cr shapes the prairie topography. The lack of dense settlement on this sheet highlights the territory's primary use for ranching and resource management in the early 21st century. Smaller tributaries such as Peach Cr, Soap Cr, and Cabin Cr illustrate the complex watershed that eventually feeds into larger basins beyond the quadrangle's borders.
