About this map

Thunder Basin National Grassland dominates the northwestern portion of this Weston County landscape, where the public rangelands meet a complex system of seasonal drainage basins. The area is defined by its hydraulic network, primarily the various branches of Beaver Cr, including S Beaver Cr and Oil Cr. These waterways carve through the high plains, creating a distinct topographical signature of draws and ridges.

Logistics across this terrain are anchored by Morrissey Rd, which provides the primary north-south passage through the eastern and southern sections. Smaller drainages like Rough Cr and Mush Cr intersect the grasslands, illustrating the characteristic drainage patterns of the eastern Wyoming plains. The map's detailed section lines and range boundaries provide a clear framework for researchers examining land use and cattle grazing territories in the contemporary West.
