About this map

Reno Junction serves as the focal point for this high-plains landscape in Campbell County, where the intersection of major roads meets a network of intermittent watercourses. The drainage patterns of Hay Cr and its tributaries, including W Fork Hay Cr and E Fork Hay Cr, define the cattle-ranching territory of the eastern Powder River Basin. The presence of established operations like Durham Ranch and Boller Ranch illustrates the enduring importance of large-scale livestock holdings in this part of Wyoming.

Topographically, the area is marked by distinctive features such as Rocky Hill and a significant escarpment known as The Jumpoff. The road network around Wright Blvd and Ranchero DR indicates modern residential development expanding near the junction, while descriptive land features like School Section Draw and N Prong Little Thunder Cr reflect the historical surveying and nomenclature of the open range.
