1962 Map of Gillam Draw

USGS Topo · Published 1965

About this map

The White River carves through the northern reaches of this Rio Blanco County terrain, defined by the prominent Coal Oil Rim and the sprawling drainages of the Big Ridge. In the early 1960s, this landscape was a mix of cattle country and emerging energy infrastructure, evidenced by a Pipeline crossing the river and a Pumping Sta located near the riverbank. A network of Jeep Trails and unnamed trails provides the primary access through the dissected topography of Gillam Draw and Spring Creek. Isolated human markers, such as the Hefley Cabin near the southern border and various mapped Oil Wells and Drill Holes, speak to the region's historical reliance on ranching and resource extraction. The map also captures local landmarks like the Basin Reservoir and the Rocky Ford Draw, essential water-related features in this arid environment.
