2014 Map of Potter

About this map

Potter serves as the central hub of this Cheyenne County landscape, situated along the corridor formed by the Lodgepole Creek valley. The map reveals a town layout structured by streets such as Sherman St and Front St, with the Potter Community Cem located just to the south. This 2014 survey documents a region where water management is essential for the high plains environment, as evidenced by several named catchments including Heimer Reservoir, Jung Reservoir, and Willoughby Reservoir. The presence of these reservoirs alongside the seasonal path of Sand Draw illustrates the local adaptation to a semi-arid climate, where every drainage—from Lodgepole Cr to the various unnamed coulees—is integral to the area's agricultural and ranching utility.
