About this map

Larey Draw characterizes this stretch of Campbell County, where the high plains landscape is defined by an intricate network of seasonal drainage channels and small-scale water management. The terrain is marked by a series of named "draws" that feed into larger branches of the Powder River Basin drainage system, including Ivy Creek and multiple prongs of Spotted Horse Creek and North Prong Wild Horse Creek.

Evidence of ranching and land use is visible through several small impoundments such as Suranyi Reservoir, Okeson Reservoir, and Fitzgerald Reservoir. These features, along with rural access points like Ivy Creek Road and Middle Prong Road, show how local inhabitants managed water and travel in this semi-arid environment. The presence of family or place-named landmarks like Howell Draw, Mizer Draw, and Dead Calf Draw provides specific geographical points of interest for genealogists and local historians studying the ranching heritage of northern Wyoming.
