2021 Map of Red Desert SW

About this map

The Continental Divide bisects this high desert landscape in Sweetwater County, marking a fundamental hydrologic boundary across the arid plains of Wyoming. The terrain is defined by dramatic escarpments, most notably the long stretch of the Delaney Rim, which runs roughly west-to-east across the central portion of the sheet. This geographic feature creates a sharp elevation change in an otherwise open expanse, serving as a landmark for navigation and land management.
