2017 Map of Lost Creek

About this map

Kennedy Basin sits as a prominent geological feature in this high-altitude drainage divide near the Washakie and Natrona county border. The landscape is defined by its intermittent watercourses, including the eponymous Lost Creek and Little Lost Creek, which channel seasonal runoff through the high plains. The transport network reflects the area's ranching and livestock heritage, evidenced by the Cherry Creek Stock Drive and high-ridge access routes like Mahagony Butte Road. These thoroughfares, alongside Cherry Creek Road and Box Elder Road, provide the primary infrastructure through this isolated terrain where public land and private holdings intermingle. The surveyor's data captures a high-desert environment where water remains the most significant variable, from the drainage of Deep Creek to the smaller Little Deep Creek.
