About this map

High-plains ranching operations and steam-era rail infrastructure define this mid-century landscape in Natrona County. The Chicago Burlington and Quincy railroad cuts a prominent east-west path across the northern half of the quadrangle, following the gradual drainage of Alkali Creek. This corridor served as a vital transport link for the remote livestock operations that anchored the local economy, evidenced by scattered family holdings including Todd Ranch and Sullivan Ranch. In the southern reaches, the ephemeral drainage of Poison Creek and Garrison Draw cross the terrain near Jack Ranch and Wight Ranch. Several Windmill sites and a perennial Spring are noted, highlighting the essential water sources required to sustain life and industry in this arid Wyoming basin.
