2021 Map of Turnercrest

About this map

Thunder Basin National Grassland dominates this high plains landscape in Campbell County, where public lands and intermittent water sources define the geography. The map traces the winding paths of Little Bates Cr, N Bates Cr, and Bates Cr, illustrating a drainage system typical of the semi-arid basins in northeast Wyoming. Named landmarks like Mexican Springs and the level expanse of Reno Flats provide essential orientation points in a territory historically used for grazing and ranching. The township and range lines, such as t42n r74w and t41n r73w, structure the vast open spaces, showing how late-twentieth-century land management has preserved this characteristic prairie environment into the modern era.
