2012 Map of Gillette East

About this map

Collins Heights and Wyodak sit at the intersection of industry and burgeoning residential development in this early 21st-century Wyoming landscape. The eastern outskirts of the city show a complex infrastructure designed for resource extraction and water management, anchored by the Springen Ranch Oil Field to the north and the Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad corridor. Significant water features such as the Gillette Reservoir and Gillette Fishing Lake contrast with the natural drainage of the Dry Fork Little Powder River and Donkey Creek. Local history is anchored at the Mount Pisgah Cem, while the expansive network of named draws, including Lee Draw and Shearing Pen Draw, reveals the natural topography underlying the modern street grid of neighborhoods like Sunburst.
