1989 Map of Lost Creek Butte

About this map

Luman Ranch and its associated Luman Road anchor the southern landscape of this Sweetwater County survey. The terrain is defined by the broad expanse of Battle Spring Flat and the depressions of the Lost Creek Basin, where the namesake Lost Creek Butte stands as a prominent landmark. This high-desert environment shows a clear pattern of water management and industrial transit, with a pipeline traversing the western sections and small-scale water features like Lost Creek Butte Lake and Government Reservoir providing essential resources in an otherwise arid region. The drainage patterns of Sourdough Gulch and the East Fork illustrate the natural runoff channels that shape the basins, while isolated markers like a Drill Hole point to the subsurface exploration common in this part of Wyoming during the late 20th century.
