About this map

The Powder River meanders through this portion of Johnson County, defining a landscape of high plains and drainage basins. This area is characterized by significant topographical features such as Indian Creek Divide and Monument Hill, which overlook expansive stretches like Nines Flat and Big Mikes Flat. The map reveals a network of rural routes, including Schoonover Rd and Dry Creek Rd, which provide access across the numerous draws that carve the terrain.

Water management and crossings are central to the local geography, evidenced by Petes Reservoir and the Schoonover Bridge. Tributaries like Dead Horse Cr and Indian Cr feed into the main river system, while named features such as Bugher Draw and Van Houten Draw highlight the complex erosion patterns of the region. The map provides a clear view of the township and range divisions, documenting the land use and survey history of this Wyoming ranching and plains environment.
