1951 Map of Clarkson Hill

About this map

Clarkson Hill dominates the central landscape of this Natrona County region, serving as a prominent topographical anchor for the surrounding high plains. In the mid-20th century, this area remained largely defined by its historic transportation corridors and sparse ranching outposts. The Oregon Trail and Emigrant Trail bisect the territory, following the natural contours of the land through a series of creek drainages including Poison Spring Creek, Willow Creek, and Iron Creek.
