2015 Map of Seminoe Dam NE

About this map

The Seminoe Mountains dominate this high-desert landscape in Carbon County, where complex drainage systems and isolated water sources define the geography. The western edge is carved by the North Platte River as it passes through the steep walls of Seminoe Canyon. A series of numbered drainages, including Number One Gulch, Number Two Gulch, and Number Three Gulch, run south of Bennett Mountain Rd, illustrating the systematic naming of the territory during early surveys. Cattle-ranching infrastructure is evident through the naming of Black Canyon Ranch Rd and numerous vital water points like Threemile Spring, Wildcat Springs, and Sips Spring. The presence of the House Gulch Reservoir and named draws such as Bunker Draw and Big Draw reveal how water management has historically shaped land use in this arid region of Wyoming.
