2017 Map of T A Ranch NE

About this map

The High Plains of Johnson County are defined here by a network of ephemeral drainage basins and intermittent creeks that feed into the Powder River watershed. The terrain is marked by numerous draws named for local families and landmarks, such as Arno Draw, Gossett Draw, and Trabing Draw. This pattern of land use reflects the region's ranching heritage, where water management is critical for livestock. A primary feature of this system is the Wallows Cr Number 2 Reservoir, which captures runoff from Wallows Cr and The Wallows. Infrastructure is sparse across these townships, consisting primarily of gravel roads like the Buffalo Sussex Cutoff Rd and Horseshoe Hills Rd, which connect the disparate ranch holdings between the hills.
