2021 Map of Goose Egg

About this map

The North Platte River winds through the heart of this Wyoming landscape, defining the transition from the expanding residential suburbs of Casper to the open rangeland and dramatic topography of the southern frontier. The map captures the interface between modern development in communities like Paradise Valley and Red Buttes Village and the area's deep historical roots, most notably marked by the Red Buttes Burial Ground. To the south, the terrain rises sharply toward the northern face of Casper Mtn, where the deep incision of Jackson Canyon and Gotheberg Draw create a stark contrast to the flatter northern sections around Vista West. This 2021 survey details an intricate network of local roads and draws, such as Sixmile Draw and Webb Draw, which underscore the drainage patterns essential to this high-plains environment.
