2015 Map of Y U Bench NW

About this map

Lone Tree Crossing sits at the heart of this high-desert landscape in Park County, where the topography is defined by the carved drainages of N Fork Dry Cr and the larger Dry Cr. The map illustrates a complex network of arid terrain features, from the broad Dry Creek Basin and Oregon Coulee in the west to the prominent Y U Bench in the southeast. Water management is a central theme of the lower elevations, evidenced by the Keystone Ditch and Jimmerfield Ditch near the Lower Greybull River Rd. These irrigation features represent the critical infrastructure required to support life and agriculture in the Wyoming basin. Landmark points like Red Point and the associated Red Point Draw provide sharp relief against the surrounding flats, offering a detailed look at the erosional patterns of the Big Horn Basin floor.
