2021 Map of Ferguson Corner

About this map

Agricultural irrigation networks define the landscape of this Platte County region, as evidenced by the engineered path of the Highline Ditch and the Bordeaux Canal. The terrain is characterized by a series of drainages, including the prominent Chugwater Cr in the northeast and the branching systems of Antelope Cr. Smaller localized water management is visible through features like the Bagley Brothers Reservoir and Chug Springs Reservoir, which support the ranching and farming operations in these Wyoming plains. The road network follows a combination of section lines and the diagonal corridor of the S Wheatland Hwy, connecting outlying rural properties along Bordeaux Rd and Ferguson Rd. This 2021 survey illustrates how modern infrastructure continues to adapt to the natural contours of the northern high plains.
