2017 Map of Ross Flat

About this map

Ross Flat defines this northern Wyoming landscape where the boundaries of Campbell and Converse counties meet. The area is characterized by an intricate drainage system, where intermittent streams like Ninemile Cr and Antelope Cr have carved a complex series of draws and gulches into the high plains. The terrain is marked by notable features such as Red Rock Draw and Bull Gulch, illustrating the erosive forces at work in this arid environment. Transportation through this remote section of the Powder River Basin is limited to a few arterial routes, including Nine Mile Creek Rd and Co Rd 31, which connect the scattered rangelands. This 2017 survey reflects the enduring character of the western ranching frontier, where naming conventions like McNaughton Draw and Moyer Draw likely preserve the legacy of early landholders and homesteading families.
