About this map

Hillsdale and the western outskirts of Burns anchor this high-plains landscape in Laramie County, Wyoming. The terrain is defined by the ephemeral flow of several waterways, including Lodgepole Cr in the north and the N Fork Muddy Cr and Muddy Cr systems that drain toward the southeast. This contemporary survey illustrates the area's transition into residential enclaves and rural subdivisions, evidenced by street names such as Antelope Meadows Dr, Meadow Ridge Way, and Canvasback Ln.

A dense network of county roads like CR-143 and CR-215 provides access to the surveyed sections, while the southern margin is dominated by the corridor of the I-80 Service Rd. Local history is embedded in the nomenclature of routes like Iron Horse Rd and Big Chief Rd, reflecting the heritage of this region near the Union Pacific line. The grid-like organization of the Public Land Survey System remains the primary framework for land ownership and movement across this open ranching and residential country.
