About this map

Muddy Mtn and the prominent ridge of the Hat Six Hogback define this high-altitude landscape in Natrona County. This U.S. Geological Survey topographic study documents a complex network of mountain drainages, where Clear Fork Muddy Cr and Beaver Cr navigate the steep contours of the Laramie Mountains. The terrain transitions from these sharp elevations to the gentler highland of Deer Creek Park in the southeast.

Evidence of ranching and land management is found in the scattered improvements across the township and range lines, including the McDonald Reservoir and the winding course of Smith Creek Rd. The map tracks several critical water sources like Otter Creek and Pole Cr, which have historically dictated movement and land use in this part of Wyoming. These features, along with remote paths like Limber Pine Trl, offer a detailed look at the rural infrastructure supporting this high-country area.
