2021 Map of Smith Draw East

About this map

The Hogback ridge dominates the northern landscape of this Carbon County region, marking a stark geographic transition above the winding path of Smith Draw. This area of Wyoming is defined by its drainage patterns and high-plains basins, where seasonal water management is critical for land use. The presence of the Johnston Number 2 Reservoir in the eastern portion of the map highlights the infrastructure required for water storage in this arid environment. Significant natural depressions and erosion features like Severson Flats and Iron Springs Draw illustrate the complex topography carved by environmental forces over time. Along the western edge, the steep elevation changes of Hugus Cliff provide a dramatic backdrop to the drainage at Hugus Draw, showcasing the varied terrain typical of this high-elevation Wyoming plateau.
