About this map

Thunder Basin National Grassland dominates the western portion of this landscape, where the high plains transition between Weston and Niobrara Counties. This area is characterized by a sparse network of drainage channels and small impoundments, most notably the House Reservoir located in the eastern sections. The terrain is etched by seasonal watercourses like Robbers Roost Cr, Sheep Cr, and the descriptively named Bum Draw near the southern boundary.

Transportation in this ranching country is defined by isolated thoroughfares including Morrissey Rd and Cheyenne River Rd. The map provides a clear view of the Public Land Survey System grid, with township lines for T42N and T41N precisely demarcated. This document is a vital resource for understanding the rural infrastructure and land management patterns of the Wyoming prairie in the early twenty-first century.
