2021 Map of West Fork Buffalo Creek

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Thunder Basin National Grassland dominates this high-plains landscape in Weston County, where a network of ephemeral drainages carves through the shortgrass prairie. The hydrology of the region is defined by the branching headwaters of the Buffalo Creek and Hay Creek systems, including the W Fork Buffalo Cr and E Fork Hay Cr. These creek beds illustrate the complex natural drainage patterns required to manage seasonal runoff in a semi-arid environment. Human presence is marked primarily by the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, such as t46n r67w and t45n r66w, and the winding route of Raven Creek Rd. The map reveals a land utilized for large-scale conservation and grazing, with the sparse infrastructure characteristic of Wyoming's expansive open range.
