2012 Map of Seaverson Reservoir

About this map

Seaverson Reservoir serves as a central hydrological point in this high-plains landscape of Carbon County, Wyoming. The terrain is defined by a sparse but essential network of seasonal drainage and water sources, including Fillmore Cr and the winding course of Coal Bank Cr. These waterways illustrate the critical importance of water management and natural springs in the arid Western interior, where even small features like Chicken Spring represent vital landmarks for land use and navigation. The intricate road network shown on this U.S. Geological Survey map reveals the patterns of ranching or mineral access common to this region of Wyoming, providing a detailed look at the interface between natural drainages like Bad Water Cr and human-made infrastructure in the early twenty-first century.
