Red Desert Basin dominates the eastern portion of this high-altitude landscape, showing the drainage patterns of the arid Wyoming interior in the mid-2010s. The map illustrates a transition from the lower elevations of the basin into more complex terrain to the west, marked by Twelvemile Gulch and the seasonal path of Black Rock Cr. These intermittent watercourses and the presence of Dugout Draw suggest a landscape shaped by infrequent but significant runoff events. Human infrastructure is limited to primitive and local connectors such as the Bar X Rd and Co Road 82, which traverse the open range. This 2015 survey provides a precise record of the public land survey system lines, including the intersections of townships t22n r98w and t21n r97w, essential for modern land management and historical property research in Sweetwater County.
