About this map

New Fork River meanders through this portion of Sublette County, defining a landscape of braided channels and wetlands in the high plains. The watercourse creates notable geographic features such as Mack Island, while the surrounding terrain is marked by significant elevation changes including the prominent plateau of The Mesa to the northwest. This 2017 survey by the U.S. Geological Survey details the rural transportation network that serves the region's ranching and recreational needs, with routes like Paradise Rd, New Fork River Rd, and Boulder South Rd providing access to the river valley.

The Two Buttes Reservoir sits at the northern edge of the map, situated amidst a network of ephemeral drainages such as Lovatt Draw and Sand Springs Draw. These seasonal water paths illustrate the arid nature of the environment outside the immediate river corridor. The map provides a clear look at modern land management and property lines in Wyoming, including the intersection of Floras Ln and the various township and range boundaries that organize this Western landscape.
