About this map

McDonald Ranch and several other family-named landholdings define this high plains landscape of Wyoming in the early 1960s. Located along the boundary of Platte Co and Laramie Co, the area is characterized by a network of seasonal draws and creeks that carved deep relief into the terrain. The Colorado and Southern railroad tracks follow the corridor of Chugwater Creek in the southwest, providing a vital transportation link through the hills. Educational and social life centered around the McDonald Sch, while the presence of the Diamond Ranch and Wiedemeyer Ranch underscores the region's ranching heritage. Numerous named features like North Steer Draw and Mendenhall Draw offer specific geographic markers for genealogists and local historians tracing land use in this part of the state.
