About this map

Meeteetse Rim dominates the southern landscape of this Park County quadrangle, marking a dramatic geological transition just north of Meeteetse Cr. The 2015 survey reveals an arid territory defined by a network of drainage systems and vital water storage projects, including the Coe Enlargement Reservoir and the Second Enlargement Foster Number 1 Reservoir. These features, alongside Dry Creek Reservoir, suggest the critical importance of water management in this Wyoming ranching or resource-rich environment.

Industrial history is subtly noted at Coal Mine Gulch in the eastern hills near Oregon Coulee, while local access is provided by unpaved routes such as Half Moon Rd and Road 3AE. This map serves as a precise record of contemporary land use, where the high-elevation terrain of Cedar Ridge meets a complex web of named creeks like Horner Cr and Ashworth Cr, illustrating the remote and specialized nature of this pocket of the American West.
