About this map

Sand Draw serves as the focal point for this 2015 study of Fremont County, Wyoming, where the high desert terrain is defined by a complex network of intermittent watercourses. The landscape is carved by numerous drainages, including Bobcat Draw, Carter Draw, and Kirby Draw, which converge toward the central valley. Significant elevation changes are marked by McTurk Ridge and the prominent Oil Mtn, reflecting the geological character of the region.

Infrastructure in this part of the state is primarily centered on resource access, as evidenced by Oil Springs Rd and the primary Sand Draw Rd. Localized water sources like Carlson Spring provide critical landmarks in an otherwise arid environment. The map details the transition from the low-lying Big Sand Draw to the upland ridges, illustrating a landscape historically shaped by oil exploration and ranching access.
