North Packsaddle Canyon and its counterpart South Packsaddle Canyon dominate this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County. The terrain is defined by the Jack Morrow Hills, which rise above a network of seasonal watercourses and drainage systems. Water movement across this arid region is traced by Pacific Cr, Alkali Wash, and Alkali Cr, illustrating the complex natural irrigation of the Wyoming plains. Human presence is limited to a sparse grid of rural routes, including CR 21 and the Bar X Rd, which provide access through the vast public land survey sections. This map documents a largely undeveloped wilderness area, emphasizing the relief and topography of the canyons and hills over modern infrastructure.
