2012 Map of Windy Point

About this map

Windy Point and the high plateaus of Lincoln County define this landscape of high-altitude drainages and water management. The terrain is characterized by prominent elevations such as Bridger Hill and High Top, which oversee a complex network of seasonal and perennial waterways including Bridger Cr and Collett Cr. A series of specialized water storage sites are distributed across the quadrangle, including the uniquely named Question Mark Reservoir, White Rock Pit Reservoir, and Cercocapia Reservoir. These features, alongside Bridger Basin, reflect the area's essential relationship with water resources in a semi-arid environment, where named reservoirs such as Lag Reservoir and Pocket Reservoir serve as critical landmarks for local land use and navigation.
