2015 Map of Red Lake

About this map

Red Lake and the high elevation of Chalk Butte define this portion of the Red Desert Basin in southern Wyoming. This high-altitude desert landscape is mapped with precise topography, showing a series of depressions and ridges that characterize the endorheic drainage systems of the region. The map documents the sparse infrastructure required for movement across this arid territory, where the primary routes include Bar X Rd, Black Rock Connector Rd, and Cr-20. The public land survey system grid, including t23n r97w and t22n r98w, provides the foundational structure for land management in this resource-rich but sparsely populated corner of Sweetwater County.
