About this map

Garfield Peak anchors this corner of Natrona County, rising above a landscape defined by ranching operations and isolated water sources. Ranch life is represented by Jameson Ranch and Sixmile Ranch, connected by the winding Poison Spider Rd and other local tracks like Cord and Dry Creek Rd. The drainage network is complex, with Wallace Cr, Fales Cr, and Murphy Cr carving through the terrain towards the Middle Fork Casper Cr.

Surface water management is critical in this environment, as shown by the Lady Emma Reservoir and Six Mile Reservoir. The geography transitions from the Rattlesnake Hills in the west through significant natural depressions and passes, including Woodard Basin and UT Pass. Notable landmarks like Fales Rocks and The Meadows serve as essential navigational markers across this high-plains ranching district.
