About this map

Piedmont occupies the northwest corner of this Uinta County landscape, situated where Piedmont Cr flows through the high-elevation basin. The area is defined by a complex network of draws and ridges, reflecting the water-scarce environment of southwestern Wyoming. Local landforms carry the names of early figures in the region, seen in features like Anna Holt Draw, Alma Holt Draw, and Meyers Ridge.

Water management is a central theme of the topography, evidenced by the presence of Byrne Ditch Number 2 and the Pine Grove Canal, which channel flow across the arid flats. Significant elevation changes are marked by prominent landmarks such as Chapman Butte in the southwest and Haystack Butte to the northeast. These landforms, along with the broad expanse of Nebraska Flat, provide a clear picture of the ranching and agricultural infrastructure required to sustain life in this high-desert terrain.
