2017 Map of Savage Ranch

About this map

The North Platte River carves a winding path through this central Carbon County landscape, defining the topography from its entrance near Oxbow Bend to its northward exit. This 2017 survey highlights the namesake Savage Ranch and the surrounding natural features that carry the same name, including Savage Meadows and the Savage Hills. The terrain is characterized by a series of dramatic draws and flats, such as Hugus Draw, Iron Springs Draw, and Severson Flats, which illustrate the complex drainage patterns feeding into the river system. North of the river, the prominent Hogback ridge and Whitehorse Canyon dominate the elevation. Modern infrastructure like Co RD 347 and remnants of the Old Hwy follow the contours of the land, providing a contemporary view of the region's ranching and transit corridors.
