1968 Map of Greasewood Knoll

USGS Topo · Published 1972

About this map

The livestock ranching landscape of Albany County is clearly defined on this 1968 study, dominated by the Greasewood Knoll landform and the intricate drainage of Greasewood Creek. A rare glimpse into the practical infrastructure of the high plains, the map documents the Laycock Shearing Pens and a large Corral near the center of the sheet, illustrating the region's agricultural focus. Local movement was facilitated by the Marshall Road and the Fort Fetterman Road, which connect this high-plateau terrain to larger regional hubs. Water sources, vital for sheep and cattle, are sparse but identified at Budge Lake, Soda Spring, and along the winding Bone Creek. From Prairie Point in the north to the shearing facilities in the south, the map preserves the functional layout of a mid-century Wyoming ranching district.
