About this map

Tea Kettle Rock stands as the primary landmark in this high plains landscape of Goshen County, characterized by the expansive townships of the Public Land Survey System. The terrain is defined by low-lying drainages and higher elevations such as Ninemile Hill, reflecting the open cattle-ranching country of eastern Wyoming. This 2017 survey details the section-line road network that facilitates transit across these vast grazing lands, including Van Tassell Rd and Teakettle Rd.

The presence of the Canal Access Rd in the southwestern corner suggests the importance of water management in this arid environment. The map provides a precise layout of the rural infrastructure, showing the intersection of numerous county routes such as Co Rd 49 and Rd 48w. Genealogists and local historians can use these demarcations to pinpoint family holdings and historical land use within the various ranges, from t26n r61w to t25n r62w.
