1958 Map of Alkali Butte

USGS Topo · Published 1984

About this map

Wind River Indian Reservation lands dominate this landscape in central Wyoming, defined by the stark drainage networks of Alkali Creek and Kirby Draw. The topography is centered on the prominence of Alkali Butte, a landmark that serves as the focal point for the surrounding Alkali Butte Oil Field. This mid-century survey reveals the industrial footprint of petroleum extraction within the reservation, marking numerous Oil Wells and a Well site that illustrate the region's economic reliance on natural resources. The southern portion of the sheet is bisected by the Wind River Indian Reservation Boundary, separating these tribal lands from adjacent territory where Carter Draw cuts through the arid terrain. The map's detail provides a clear view of the sparse infrastructure and geological features that characterized this part of Fremont County during the late 1950s.
