2021 Map of Wild Horse Flats

USGS Topo · Published 2021

About this map

Wild Horse Flats occupies a central position in this Wyoming landscape, where the management of water is essential to the arid terrain. The intricate network of irrigation is visible through the Shell Canal and the Thompson Lateral, which feed into several catchments like Perkins Reservoir and Jones Reservoir. This infrastructure suggests a long-standing reliance on engineered water systems to support activity on the flats. To the north and east, the topography becomes more defined by prominent ridges and named drainages. Potato Ridge and Fox Mtn overlook a series of deep cuts including Sheldon Gulch and Scharen Gulch. Further south, the landscape is marked by the presence of Blue Ridge Reservoir and the appropriately named Wild Horse Draw. The area is connected by functional thoroughfares such as Haul RD and Torchlight RD, reflecting the practical transport needs of this part of Big Horn County.
