2012 Map of Kaycee

About this map

The Middle Fork Powder River carves through this central Wyoming landscape, serving as the primary hydrological anchor for the ranching operations that define the region. In the early 21st century, the town of Kaycee stands as the central hub, surrounded by a network of established homesteads including the Gosney Ranch, Fauber Ranch, and Fisher Ranch. The map reveals a complex system of water management essential for high-plains agriculture, evidenced by irrigation features like the Murphy Ditch, Vruwink Ditch, and Keith Ditch. To the west, the terrain rises toward Pine Ridge, while the southern reaches are marked by the prominent geological formation of Castle Rock. Transportation is dominated by the modern interstate corridor, yet older routes like Old Barnum Rd and Lone Bear Rd continue to trace the historical movements of people and livestock through the draws and flats.
