2021 Map of Jay Em

About this map

Jay Em serves as the focal point of this high-plains landscape, situated along the course of Rawhide Cr. The settlement is marked by its Po and the nearby Forest Mound Cem, providing a clear record of local genealogy and land tenure in Goshen County. The terrain is defined by an intricate network of ephemeral watercourses and drainages, including Hileman Draw, Lowry Draw, and the uniquely named Red Cloud Slough. Human presence is further etched into the landscape by a grid of rural routes such as Harris Ranch Rd and Prairie Ctr Rd, which connect remote ranching operations. The presence of Sixmile Cr in the southeast corner and Muskrat Cr to the west highlights the importance of seasonal water management in this Wyoming cattle country.
