1985 Map of Grass Creek

USGS Topo · Published 1985

About this map

The Grass Creek Oil Field and the adjacent Grass Creek Gas Field dominate this mid-1980s landscape in Hot Springs County, reflecting the region's intensive energy development during the late twentieth century. Centered around the settlement of Grass Creek, the terrain is defined by the massive natural amphitheater of the Grass Creek Basin. The map captures a sophisticated network of industrial infrastructure required for extraction, woven into a geography marked by significant drainages such as Gooseberry Creek and Sand Draw. This survey provides researchers a detailed view of the petroleum industry's footprint on the Wyoming landscape, documenting how roads and well sites integrated with natural features like Coalmine Draw and the high elevation of Enos. Local water sources, including Spring Gulch, remain critical markers for understanding the historical development of this remote industrial pocket.
