Opal Bench and Chrisman Bench define the high desert topography of this southwestern Wyoming landscape, which spans the border between Lincoln and Sweetwater counties. The terrain is characterized by broad benches and basins, with drainage provided by the S Fork Shute Cr in the southeastern quadrant. This survey illustrates the systematic division of public lands into townships such as t22n r112w and t21n r111w, a structure that has organized western ranching and resource extraction for generations. The isolation of Whiskey Basin reflects the high-altitude arid environment, where named landmarks often serve as essential navigation points for land management and local geography.
