About this map

The Bighorn River corridor in Washakie County anchors a landscape defined by its irrigation infrastructure and agricultural settlements. The complex network of the Bighorn Canal, Bluff Canal, and Bluff Ditch runs parallel to the river, enabling the existence of farming communities like South Flat and Colter. These water systems are critical to the region's character, cutting through the arid terrain of Horse Gulch and Neiber Draw.

Scattered settlements like Neiber, Winchester, and McNutt represent the local centers of this rural community. The landscape transitions from the river valley to higher ground at Tie Down Flats, while natural drainage features such as Gooseberry Cr and Little Gooseberry Cr move toward the main river channel. Local roads, including Cedar Mountain RD and McGarvin Creek RD, provide the primary links between these homesteads and the irrigated fields.
