1973 Map of Epsie NE

USGS Topo · Published 1977

About this map

Wolf Creek and its various tributaries define this remote corner of Powder River County, where the high plains transition into dissected breaks. In the early 1970s, the landscape remained largely defined by livestock grazing and mineral exploration, evidenced by the numerous drainage networks like the West Fork and East Fork. Local industry is anchored by small-scale mining operations, including the Peerless Mine near Sand Creek Hill and the Gatlin Mine further south. The presence of several Drill Holes across the quadrangle suggests ongoing subsurface investigation during this era. Transportation is limited to a sparse network of unimproved roads and a Jeep Trail, while the prominent Radio Tower near Sand Creek serves as a modern landmark in an otherwise unpopulated expanse of grazing land and watercourses such as Wrangler Creek and Rough Creek.
