2015 Map of Smith Draw West

About this map

Sheep Mtn and the steep elevation of Hugus Cliff define the southwestern landscape of this Carbon County quadrangle. The terrain is marked by deep incisions from Wild Horse Canyon and Hay Gulch, illustrating the high-altitude drainage patterns of the high plains. In the northern reaches, Fivemile Ridge and Chokecherry Knob rise above the surrounding slopes, while the seasonal watercourse of Smith Draw cuts through the eastern sections. This survey provides a precise look at the township and range grids of the early 21st century, revealing a landscape largely devoid of modern development, instead showing the intricate topography and natural landmarks used by ranchers and hunters for generations in this part of Wyoming.
