2021 Map of Strouss Hill

About this map

Medicine Bow Mountains define the southwestern portion of this high-altitude landscape, where the Medicine Bow National Forest covers the elevated terrain. The drainage patterns of the Laramie Mountains are evident through the complex network of creeks, including the several forks of N Fork Cooper Cr and Mill Cr. Notable landmarks like Strouss Hill, Coyote Hill, and Bunker Hill provide distinct vertical relief across the region. Human development is minimal and focused on ranching infrastructure, such as Woolf Ranch Rd and the Straus Ditch Number 2, which suggests the importance of water management in this arid environment. The map also captures the Carbon and Albany County line as it cuts north-to-south through the high country west of Lost Lake.
