2021 Map of Natrona

About this map

The settlement of Natrona serves as a small anchor in this high desert landscape, positioned along a transportation corridor that includes the Middle Fork Casper Cr. The geography is defined by a network of drainage systems and canyons, including the prominent Smith Canyon and Baerthel Canyon near Pine Mtn. Historically significant routes like the Cottonwood Stock Trl weave through the township sections, reflecting the region's legacy of livestock movement and ranching. To the north, the ephemeral waters of Wild Horse Lake sit among several draws like Mikes Draw and Anderson Draw. This modern survey by the U.S. Geological Survey illustrates a sparsely populated terrain where the intersection of county roads and historic trails still dictates the local movement through Natrona County's arid basins.
