About this map

The Continental Divide traverses the southern half of this landscape, separating the high desert drainage patterns within the Red Desert Basin. The terrain is defined by wide arid valleys such as Salt Sage Draw and Smiley Draw, where isolated wells and water tanks provided essential infrastructure for ranching and resource extraction. The southern margin of the map highlights a concentrated corridor of industrial and transportation activity, anchored by the Union Pacific railroad.
