About this map

Salt Wells Creek and Black Butte Creek define the arid drainage patterns of this high-desert landscape in Sweetwater County. The terrain is marked by the north-south passage of Salt Wells Road, a solitary thoroughfare that navigates the expansive basins and rising plateaus. This 2015 U.S. Geological Survey representation emphasizes the vast open spaces of the Wyoming interior, where the Public Land Survey System grids—including t19n r103w, t19n r102w, t18n r103w, and t18n r102w—provide the primary structure for land management. The sparse distribution of named features suggests a region dominated by ranching or resource extraction, where natural watercourses and established roads are the vital lifelines for navigation and local industry.
