1968 Map of Cooper Ridge NE

USGS Topo · Published 1978

About this map

Cooper Ridge defines the high ground in this arid corner of Sweetwater County, overlooking a complex system of drainage channels including Pinnacle Draw and Williams Draw. The landscape shows clear signs of mid-century resource exploration, with several labeled Prospects and a Gas Well located near Sand Wash in the southeastern portion of the quadrangle. These features indicate the region's transition into an energy-producing landscape during the late 1960s and 1970s. The winding course of Black Butte Creek cuts through the center of the sheet, providing the primary geographic orientation for the area. Surveyed originally in 1967 and updated with 1976 aerial photography, the map documents the sparse but industrially significant infrastructure of the High Desert before more modern expansions.
