About this map

Cumberland Flats dominates the central landscape of this western Wyoming terrain, situated just south of the established community of Kemmerer. The area is defined by its prominent ridgelines and drainage basins, notably Oyster Ridge and the watercourse of Hams Fork in the northeast corner. Traces of regional development are evident in the proximity of small settlements and junctions, including Elkol and Blazon Junction, which serve as markers for the area's transition from high-desert flats to more complex topography.

The landscape is marked by significant geomorphological features such as Blazon Gap and Skull Point, which influenced the placement of local thoroughfares like Sageview Dr and Wildwood Rd. This survey documents the intersection of rural land management and natural barriers, showing how the N Fork Little Muddy Cr and several high points, including Crockers Point, dictate the movement and settlement patterns across the Lincoln County expanse.
