2012 Map of Middlewood Hill

About this map

Middlewood Hill rises over a high-plains landscape defined by seasonal drainages and livestock infrastructure in Carbon County. This 2012 survey documents a corner of the Wyoming rangeland where cattle ranching and modern water management intersect. The presence of Middlewood Ranch and the nearby Midget Geyser point to the unique hydro-geological character of this basin. A complex network of creeks, including Trapper Cr, Beaver Cr, and Middlewood Cr, feeds into man-made catchments like Adams Reservoir and Low Reservoir, illustrating the critical role of water control in this arid environment. Transportation through the area is anchored by McCarty Canyon Rd, which cuts across the southern portion of the quadrangle, providing access to landmarks like Round Meadow and the surrounding draws.
