2012 Map of Tallon Spring

About this map

Tallon Spring and Deadmans Spring provide critical water points in this arid stretch of Washakie County, where the landscape is defined by the drainage network of Otter Creek. The various branches, including N Fork Otter Cr and S Fork Otter Cr, carve through distinct topographic formations such as Box Canyon and the sharply defined ridges of The Vees. This terrain is primarily accessed by a sparse network of specialized routes, most notably the Big Trails Stock Drive Rd, which indicates the area's continued importance for livestock movement. The presence of Otter Creek Vee and Eberhardt Vee highlights the dramatic V-shaped incisions made by seasonal flows, while Crooked Cr and N Fork Little Canyon Cr mark the southern margins of the survey area.
