2012 Map of Thompson Draw

About this map

Allemand Flat sits at the heart of this high-plains landscape in Converse County, where the intricate drainage network of the Powder River Basin is clearly etched. The terrain is defined by a series of named ephemeral watercourses, including Thompson Draw, Spring Draw, and Night Draw, which guide the seasonal flow of water across the semi-arid steppe. This 2012 survey illustrates the remote nature of the region, where human infrastructure is limited to ranch roads like Ross Rd. The complex hydrology is anchored by the bifurcating paths of N Stinking Water Cr and Stinking Water Cr in the south, while Sand Cr and Friday Draw dominate the northern reaches. For researchers, the map provides a precise look at the land's natural contours and the named topographic landmarks used by local ranchers and land managers.
