About this map

Robinson Canyon serves as the focal point for this landscape in Johnson County, where the high-elevation drainage systems of the Bighorn Mountains foothills intersect. The complex network of seasonal and perennial waterways, including the evocative Middle Fork Crazy Woman Cr and Seventysix Cr, dictates the ranching infrastructure of the region. Water management is central to the land's utility, evidenced by the Northside Ditch and several livestock water sources such as Miller Reservoir and Steffensen Number 2 Reservoir.

Transport through this part of Wyoming is defined by winding rural routes like Robinson Canyon Rd and Billy Creek Rd, which provide access to family-named landmarks and historical holdings. Names like Ziegler Ln and O'Malley Draw suggest a long history of local settlement and land use. The topography is further punctuated by geological features like Red Gulch and various springs, including Tetley Spring and Cole Spring, which remain vital landmarks for those tracing the development of high-country grazing lands.
