2012 Map of Lovell

About this map

The Shoshone River dictates the landscape of this Wyoming region, carving through the high desert where an intricate network of irrigation systems supports the community. Major arterial waterways like the Elk Lovell Canal, Sidon Canal, and Lovell Canal weave across the terrain, illustrating the critical role of water management in Big Horn County. North of the town center, Cowley Siding stands as a marker of the area's transportation history, while the sprawling Lovell Cem serves as a significant site for genealogical research. The map also captures the distinct natural drainage patterns of the Bighorn Basin, including Foster Gulch, Black Draw, and Sand Draw, alongside tributaries such as Sage Creek and Peterson Creek.
