1984 Map of Thompson Draw

About this map

Flat Allemand dominates the southern portion of this high-plains landscape, characterized by a complex drainage network typical of the Converse County region. The terrain is defined by the winding paths of Stinking Water Creek and its North Fork, which cut through the topography alongside Bear Creek and Thompson Draw. This 1984 provisional survey, compiled from 1976 aerial photography, captures a sparsely developed area where human activity is marked primarily by an isolated Landing Strip. The abundance of named ephemeral watercourses, such as Friday Draw, Sand Creek, Spring Draw, and Night Draw, highlights the seasonal hydrology that shaped the movement of early ranchers and land surveyors across this portion of Wyoming.
