2021 Map of Sheets Flat

About this map

The Greybull River carves a central path through this Wyoming landscape, defining a valley where irrigation engineering has historically supported ranching. Complex water systems including the Keystone Ditch, Rankin Ditch, and Snyders Ditch demonstrate the essential role of water rights in the region. Near the river's bend, the Yu Ranch Airport and the settlement of Sheets Flat anchor the local community. To the north, the elevation rises sharply toward Y U Bench and Mackey Gulch, while the southern reaches are dominated by Tatman Mtn and the topographical depression of Badger Creek Basin. This survey provides a precise look at how the high plains terrain is partitioned by land use, from the managed reservoir at McGee Reservoir to the natural obstacle known as the Beaver Slide.
