2021 Map of Spoon Butte SW

About this map

Castle Rocks stands as a prominent landmark in this high plains landscape of Goshen County, where the terrain transitions from undulating rises into defined drainages. The area is characterized by a sparse, ranch-oriented infrastructure, anchored by the north-south transit of Van Tassell Rd and local connectors like Co Rd 40. Natural hydrology is represented by the intermittent flow of Sheep Cr in the northeast corner and the winding course of George Draw to the southeast. These features, along with the precise Section, Township, and Range lines of the Public Land Survey System, reflect the enduring grid-based settlement patterns of eastern Wyoming. This 2021 update documents the continued reliance on legacy road networks and natural landmarks in a region defined more by its landforms than by concentrated urban development.
