2017 Map of Rawlins Peak SW

About this map

Separation Flats dominates the central portion of this 2017 high-desert landscape in Carbon County, where a network of ephemeral watercourses like Separation Cr and Indian Spring Cr carve through the basin. The map illustrates a transitional terrain defined by prominent geological and drainage features, including the broad Mahoney Draw and the distinctively named Big Rocks formation in the northeast. Infrastructure in this sparsely populated region is concentrated along the southern corridor, where Interstate 80 cuts across the territory near Knobs Rd. Historically significant transit points are noted, such as the Eightmile Bridge, which serves as a landmark for crossing the desert washes. This survey provides a precise look at the drainage patterns of Fillmore Cr and Creston Draw, revealing how water management and road placement were adapted to the natural contours of the Wyoming desert.
