2021 Map of Elmo

About this map

Hanna and the adjacent settlement of Elmo sit at the southern edge of this high-plains landscape, representing the primary residential hubs in this part of Carbon County. The terrain is defined by a network of drainage channels and irrigation infrastructure, including the N Ditch and Middle Ditch, which suggest the management of scarce water resources in an arid environment. To the north, the elevation rises toward the Medicine Bow Breaks, a complex system of ridges and coulees that dominates the upper half of the quadrangle. The naming of local landmarks like Hanna Draw, Barrel Spring, and Stink Cr provides a glimpse into the topographical identifiers used by local ranchers and residents. The proximity of transportation routes like Hwy 291 and various county roads indicates the connectivity between these small coal-country communities and the surrounding rangeland.
