2015 Map of Leavitt Bench

About this map

Leavitt Bench and the surrounding high plains of Uinta County define this landscape of water management and livestock grazing. The intricate engineering of the Milich Ditch cuts across the western portion of the map, illustrating the vital role of irrigation in the arid terrain south of Poverty Flats. The topography is dominated by dramatic elevation changes where Tipperary Bench drops away into Leavitt Basin, a region carved by seasonal drainages such as Leavitt Cr and Little Dry Cr. These water sources, alongside reliable points like Pitcher Spring and Corral Spring, represent the essential infrastructure for ranching operations in this corner of Wyoming. While the area remains largely open range, the network of county roads including Tipperary Rd and WY-410 connects these disparate pastures and canyons.
