About this map

The N Platte River meanders through the southern portion of this Carbon County landscape, defining a network of riparian ecosystems and ranching infrastructure. Private landholdings like Byers Ranch and Eatons Ranch sit near the water, while the Saratoga Fish Hatchery represents a significant specialized site near the banks of Lake Cr. Irrigation is managed through features such as Pick Ditch, which supports the agricultural viability of the basin.

To the north and east, the terrain rises into prominent landmarks including Sixmile Hill and the distinctive Sheep Rock. This area is connected by a sparse grid of rural roads, including Pass Creek Rd and Johnson Island Rd, which navigate the high ground between McPhail Draw and the broad Hay Meadows. The hydrology is further defined by Jack Cr and Lake Creek Lake, illustrating the seasonal and permanent water systems critical to this part of Wyoming.
