2018 Map of Prairie View School

About this map

Prairie View School stands as a primary landmark in this rural section of Niobrara County, where the landscape is defined by the drainage basins of Muddy Cr and its tributaries. The terrain transitions from the relatively level sections along Baars Rd in the north to more dissected topography as one moves south toward Little Muddy Cr. A network of thoroughfares including Windmill Rd and Spanish Diggings Rd provides the modern framework for accessing these high plains grazing lands. This 2018 survey illustrates a persistent ranching environment where watercourses like Spanish Cr remain the principal geographic features of interest for those tracking land use and historic school districts in the Wyoming backcountry.
