2012 Map of Pinto Creek

About this map

N Laramie River flows across this high-plains landscape in Albany County, defining a region characterized by remote ranching operations and carefully managed water resources. The dominance of irrigation infrastructure is evident in the presence of Pinto Reservoir, Twenty-Mile Number 1 Reservoir, and Sturgeon Reservoir Number 3, which support the agricultural needs of local holdings like Dodge Ranch. This 2012 survey shows a network of seasonal drainages and named draws, such as Twentymile Draw and Elk Horn Draw, which channel runoff toward the primary creek systems.
