About this map

The Nowood River corridor in Washakie County anchors a landscape defined by an extensive network of water management and ranching infrastructure. This survey captures a terrain carved by numerous drainages, including Joe Emge Cr, Bud Kimball Cr, and Spring Cr, which feed into the main river valley. A sophisticated system of reservoirs, such as Warner Reservoir, Flagstone Reservoir, and Last Hope Reservoir, demonstrates the critical role of water storage in this high-plains environment.

Remote ranching operations are supported by a grid of named access roads, including Fiscus Rd and Upper Nowood Rd. The presence of the Red Reflet Ranch Airport in the northeastern quadrant highlights the modernization of transport in these expansive Wyoming rangelands. From Woods Gulch to Horton Draw, the map provides a precise account of the topographical features and man-made improvements that sustain life and industry in the Big Horn Basin vicinity.
