2017 Map of Manderson NE

About this map

Potato Ridge dominates the central landscape of this Big Horn County quadrangle, situated within the Public Land Survey System townships of T52N R91W and T51N R91W. The terrain is defined by a series of dramatic erosional features, including Red Gulch in the north and the complex drainage systems of McDermotts Gulch and North Sheldon Gulch to the east. Transportation through this arid environment is limited to utilitarian routes such as Red Gulch Rd and the appropriately named Haul Rd, which traverse the high ground near Fox Mtn. The map's layout of section lines and range boundaries reflects the systematic division of Wyoming’s open rangeland, where the topography of South Sheldon Gulch and East Fork McDermotts Gulch dictates the movement of water and travelers alike.
