1966 Map of Devils Hole Gulch

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

The Wilson Creek Oil Field dominates this section of the Danforth Hills in Northwestern Colorado, showcasing the industrial footprint of petroleum extraction in the mid-1960s. Located along the border of Moffat and Rio Blanco Counties, the landscape is a network of access roads, numerous Oil Wells, and specialized infrastructure like a Pumping Station, Water Tank, and Radio Facility. The presence of Wilson Creek Camp suggests a concentrated operational center for workers in this remote terrain. Beyond the industrial sites, the topography is defined by high points like Old Baldy and Devils Hole Mountain, while drainage is handled by a complex system of gulches, including Devils Hole Gulch and Strawberry Creek. This survey captures the region just as photogrammetric mapping was being refined, documenting the specific locations of many drill holes and wells scattered across Tepee Park and Coal Butte.
