About this map

Medicine Bow National Forest dominates the southern reaches of this Wyoming landscape, where the high elevations of Albany Peak and Rock Mtn look down upon a network of drainage basins. The settlement pattern is defined by small clusters like Binford and Harris Park, situated along a system of rural routes including Harris Park Rd and Co Rd 71. This 2017 survey reveals how the topography dictates local movement, with roads following the natural contours of the land near Elliott Point and threading through gaps between peaks.

Water serves as a primary geographic anchor, with Cottonwood Cr and Crow Cr carving paths through the terrain. The map also delineates the complex jurisdictional boundaries where Albany, Converse, and Platte counties meet. These borders intersect with the Public Land Survey System grid, illustrating the systematic division of the West alongside named landforms like Horse Draw and Sand Draw. From the residential pockets of Harmon Heights and Cottonwood Park to the remote sections of Fall Cr, the sheet provides a detailed view of the Laramie Range foothills in the modern era.
