2012 Map of Leavitt Bench

About this map

Tipperary Bench and Leavitt Bench dominate this high-plains landscape of Uinta County, where the topography is defined by broad flat-topped mesas and the drainages that carve between them. The agricultural character of the region is evident in the managed water systems, including the Milich Ditch and natural sources like Pitcher Spring and Corral Spring. These water features support the Slagowski Ranch, a primary point of human settlement in a terrain otherwise characterized by open expanses like Poverty Flats and Leavitt Basin. A network of county roads, such as Tipperary Rd and Uinta Dr, connects these isolated homesteads and grazing lands. The hydrology is centered on seasonal and perennial flows including Cottonwood Cr, Leavitt Cr, and Little Dry Cr, which together shape the erosion patterns of this western Wyoming landscape.
