About this map

Jewell Draw and the surrounding drainage network of north-central Wyoming are captured here in high detail, illustrating a landscape defined by seasonal watercourses and sharp topographic relief. The boundary between Sheridan and Johnson counties cuts horizontally across the sheet, a significant administrative marker in this sparsely settled region. The terrain is characterized by intricate draws that feed into larger systems, most notably Cottonwood Creek and its branches, including the North Prong and South Prong.

Water management and natural collection points appear as central features of the local geography, represented by The Lake and named depressions like Headgate Draw. Further east, the map documents a series of named valleys including Cates Draw, Coal Draw, and Scroggins Draw. These features indicate the historical importance of specific drainage basins for land navigation and ranching throughout the various townships and ranges mapped by the U.S. Geological Survey.
