About this map

Cheyenne Spring and the surrounding high-country drainages define this portion of Carbon County. The landscape is dominated by significant topographical formations, including the Cheyenne Ridge in the north and the Haystack Mountains to the south. These features create a series of natural basins and corridors, such as Coal Creek Canyon and Corral Canyon, which have historically influenced movement through this part of Wyoming.

Modern infrastructure is sparse, represented primarily by Stone Ranch Rd, which winds along the western ridges. Named water sources like Rankin Cr, Bothwell Cr, and Saltiel Cr illustrate the drainage patterns that flow off the Coal Creek Rim. The prominence of Wild Horse Mtn and the curious flat-topped Pool Table landmark provide distinct points of reference for those tracing historical grazing routes or surveying the varied terrain of the Great Divide Basin region.
