1990 Map of Rocky Hollow

About this map

The high plains of Southeast Wyoming are defined by the winding drainages of Dater Creek and Horse Creek in this 1990 survey. Spanning the boundary of Goshen Co and Laramie Co, the landscape is marked by the eponymous Rocky Hollow and the smaller Cattail Creek to the southwest. The mapping reveals a sparse but deliberate pattern of range management, where ranch tracks and fence lines follow the contours of the breaks and draws. This topographic study captures a moment of modern ranching life, showing the exact placement of windmills and remote ranching infrastructure that supports the livestock industry in this arid environment.
