Buffalo Basin dominates this section of the Wyoming high desert, a region defined by its sparse water sources and essential overland routes. Mapping the boundary between Fremont and Sweetwater Counties, this 2021 survey illustrates the importance of vital hydrology in an arid environment, noting Olson Springs, Smiley Springs, and the McKay Reservoirs. These points of water often dictated the historical paths of travel through the sagebrush.
