2017 Map of Red Cloud Creek East

About this map

Rawhide Creek and Sixmile Creek weave through this high plains drainage system in Goshen County, illustrating the intermittent hydrology of eastern Wyoming. This 2017 edition by the U.S. Geological Survey captures a landscape defined by ranching and rural transit, where local thoroughfares like Rd 25 and Rd 106 navigate the elevation changes between creek beds and ridge lines. The terrain is notably marked by the convergence of several drainages, including Red Cloud Creek and Dry Rawhide Creek, which carve distinct patterns into the underlying geology. For researchers and historians, the map's preservation of the Public Land Survey System (PLSS) grid, spanning multiple townships like t27n r62w, provides the essential framework for tracing property boundaries and land use in this sparsely populated area.
