1989 Map of Bush Lake

USGS Topo · Published 1989

About this map

Bush Lake and the extensive Hay Reservoir define the water-scarce landscape of Sweetwater County on this 1989 provisional survey. The map details a remote high-desert environment where drainage systems like Red Creek and Cronin Draw are central to local navigation and land use. The presence of the Luman Ranch and the named settlement of Bush suggest the persistent, though sparse, human footprint of ranching and resource extraction in this corner of Wyoming. Evidence of mid-century industrial activity is marked by a Gas Well, a Drill Hole, and a Landing Strip, likely supporting oil and gas exploration or livestock management. Local history researchers can trace the path of the Luman Road as it winds past Luman Butte toward Rocky Crossing, providing a clear record of the area's essential transportation corridors before late-century developments.
