2017 Map of Erickson-Kent Ranch

About this map

The Erickson-Kent Ranch anchors this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County, where the drainage of E Salt Wells Cr cuts through a series of prominent topographic depressions including Brooks Draw and East Draw. The area is characterized by ranching infrastructure and remote access routes such as Moses Ranch Rd and Rife Ranch Rd, which connect isolated homesteads across the townships. To the south, the terrain rises toward Rifes Rim, a significant geological feature overlooking the lower basins. The map detail reflects the persistence of cattle-ranching heritage in Wyoming, documenting the essential relationship between sparse water sources like the creek and the naming of the surrounding terrain, from Scheggs Draw to West Draw.
