2012 Map of Mulkay Spring

About this map

Mulkay Spring and the winding course of Little Muddy Cr dominate this section of southwestern Wyoming, where the high desert terrain is defined by its water sources and sparse landmarks. This 2012 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a landscape characterized by an intricate network of intermittent drainage and unimproved roads, reflecting the region's ranching and resource management needs. A prominent topographic landmark, Desertion Point, rises in the eastern portion of the quadrangle, overlooking the creek's meandering path. The map provides a clear look at the modern rural infrastructure, showing how local transit routes negotiate the arid basins and low ridges that define this part of the state.
