2017 Map of Mulkay Spring

About this map

Mulkay Spring and the winding course of Little Muddy Cr dominate this high-desert landscape along the border of Lincoln and Uinta Counties. This part of southwestern Wyoming is defined by its drainage patterns and distinct topographical landmarks like Desertion Point, which rises above the surrounding plains. The map illustrates the structured Public Land Survey System grid across T18N and T19N, providing a clear view of how this territory was partitioned for ranching or resource management. Sparse in named settlements but rich in hydrological data, the survey details the seasonal water flow and elevation changes that dictate land use in this arid region. It serves as a foundational record for understanding the natural geography of the Wyoming Basin in the early 21st century.
