About this map

Black Buttes dominate the high desert terrain of this Sweetwater County landscape, where deep drainage patterns and dry washes define the topography. The 2012 survey by the U. S. Geological Survey details a sparsely settled region of Wyoming shaped by cattle ranching and transportation corridors. Water remains the primary architect of the land, visible through the meandering path of Black Butte Cr and the more significant Bitter Cr in the northern reach. Transportation is limited to functional routes such as Black Buttes Rd and Black Buttes Ranch Rd, which provide access across the high plains. This map captures the intersection of high-plateau geography and the practical infrastructure required for land management in the American West.
