Copper Mountain dominates the landscape of this Central Wyoming survey, where the extraction of ore and the isolation of high-altitude ranching defined local life in the mid-20th century. The presence of the De Pass Copper Mine (Inactive) and another Copper Mine (Inactive) nearby speak to a period of mineral prospecting along the steep slopes. Settlement patterns reflect the harsh environment, with family names attached to the terrain, including the Goedicke Homestead (Aband) and Nichols Ranch (Aband) already marked as abandoned by the early 1950s.
