2015 Map of Flitner Reservoir

About this map

Blue Ridge dominates the western landscape of this Big Horn County region, providing a high-elevation backdrop for the agricultural and water management systems in the basin below. The 2015 survey illustrates the critical role of irrigation and storage in this arid environment, centered around the Flitner Reservoir and the smaller Walters Reservoir to the east. These man-made features, alongside the Anita Ditch, demonstrate how water is diverted from seasonal drainages like Alkali Cr and Springs Cr to support local ranching operations. The road network is sparse, defined primarily by Wy-31 and private access ways such as Hamilton Ranch Ln, reflecting a landscape of large landholdings and isolated homesteads characteristic of modern Wyoming ranching territory.
