1984 Map of Ross

About this map

Ross marks a singular point of human settlement within this high-plains landscape of the 1980s, situated near the boundary where the Campbell Co Converse Co line divides the terrain. The map reveals an intricate system of ephemeral drainage, where the Fink Prong North Fork South Fork and Wind Creek cut through the topography. These intermittent waterways, along with named features like Smythe Draw and Avery Draw, define the local ranching environment and drainage patterns characteristic of this part of Wyoming. In the southern reach of the sheet, Antelope Creek flows through the open country, while the northern edge is marked by the presence of Red Rock Draw. This survey provides a clear view of the sparse road network and topographical relief that shaped land use in the region during the late twentieth century.
