About this map

The confluence of the forks of the Powder River defines this landscape in central Wyoming, where the N Fork Powder River, Middle Fork Powder River, and S Fork Powder River converge. This 2015 survey reveals a complex network of ranching and irrigation infrastructure, including the Sussex Irrigation Canal and several man-made waterways like Miles Ditch and Modoc Ditch. The presence of Coal Mine Rd and Ttt Rd hints at the region's industrial and agricultural history, while Old Highway 87 traces a former primary transport route through the southwestern corner.

Topographical landmarks such as Sipple Hill and Rock Ridge stand above numerous named coulees and draws, including Seventysix Draw and Applegate Draw. Genealogists and local historians can locate the Kaycee Cem situated near the northwestern edge of the map, providing a vital point of reference for the surrounding rural community. The map also documents the Bailey Flats and the N Jack Rabbit Reservoir, illustrating the varied terrain of Johnson County.
