2021 Map of Little Buffalo Basin

About this map

Little Buffalo Basin dominates this corner of Wyoming, where the high-elevation drainage systems of the Bighorn Basin are mapped in meticulous detail. The landscape is defined by the winding paths of Buffalo Cr in the north and the significant east-west flow of Gooseberry Cr to the south. These seasonal and perennial watercourses carve through complex terrain, creating a network of draws and ridges that have long dictated the movement of livestock and people. Remote ranching infrastructure is visible via Lu Ranch Rd and Dickie Ranch Rd, which provide access across the county line separating Park and Hot Springs counties. The map provides a clear look at the township and range grid, including t48n r100w, showing how 21st-century land management overlays the natural topography of Middle Cr and Little Buffalo Cr.
