2015 Map of Richeau Hills

About this map

Richeau Hills dominate this portion of Platte County, where a complex network of seasonal drainages and springs defines the high plains landscape. The topography is marked by significant elevations like Squaw Hill, with the surrounding terrain carved by watercourses such as Hunton Cr, N Richeau Cr, and the curiously named Tepee Ring Cr. Evidence of ranching and land management appears in the south, anchored by Home Ranch Spring and the Richard Reservoir Number 1. This 2015 survey reflects a remote corner of Wyoming where transit is limited to established routes like Brush Creek Rd and Diamond Rd. The drainage patterns of Watergap Cr and Maxwell Cr illustrate the hydrological importance of this area to local agriculture and livestock operations within the T21N and T22N townships.
