1966 Map of Banjo Flats East

About this map

Banjo Flats and the intricate drainage basins of the East Fork Nowater Creek characterize this high-desert landscape in Washakie County. Mapped in the mid-1960s, the terrain is marked by a network of ephemeral watercourses including Denver Draw, Jake Draw, and Little Denver Draw, which carve deep contours into the plateau. The map captures the infrastructure of the era's energy exploration, detailing numerous sites such as the Roush Well No 2, a Flowing Well, and several other locations labeled simply as Oil Well. A prominent Pipeline and the Marconi Road provide the primary human-made landmarks across this sparsely populated region. These features, along with Little Slick Creek, illustrate the intersection of natural topography and industrial utility during a period of active resource development in the Wyoming interior.
