About this map

Ice Cave Mountain dominates the southern reaches of this Wyoming landscape, situated within the southeastern corner of Natrona County. Much of the eastern and central terrain is protected as part of the Medicine Bow National Forest, where the Deer Creek Range creates a series of steep drainages and high-altitude parks. The hydrological network here is complex, defined by numerous mountain streams such as Spruce Cr and Spring Cr that cut through the north-south oriented ridges.

The northern boundary is marked by Deer Creek Park, while the eastern edge features the deep cut of Sensebaugh Canyon. This high-country region is characterized by its drainage basins, with Bates Cr and the E Fork Bates Cr flowing through the southern canyons, contrasted by the headwaters of Andys Cr and W Fork Deer Cr in the northeast. The map provides a clear look at the topography of the Medicine Bow front before the land descends toward the Casper plains to the north.
