About this map

Ferguson Corner serves as the focal point for this rural Platte County landscape, where the agricultural economy of southeastern Wyoming is etched into the terrain through a network of irrigation works. The vital movement of water across this high plains environment is managed by features such as the Bordeaux Canal, Highline Ditch, and Canal Number 1. These systems feed local landmarks including the Chug Springs Reservoir and Bagley Brothers Reservoir, which support ranching and farming operations in the region.

The topography is further defined by the winding paths of Chugwater Cr and the multiple branches of Antelope Cr, including the N Fork Antelope Cr and S Fork Antelope Cr. Transportation corridors like the S Wheatland Hwy cut a straight path north-to-south, intersecting with named local routes such as Bordeaux Rd and Rock Lake Rd, reflecting the modern infrastructure overlaying a traditional western grazing and agricultural district.
